This document specifies a test method for determining the fire resistance of smoke extraction ducts. It is applicable only to smoke extraction ducts that pass through another fire compartment apart from the compartment from where smoke needs to be extracted in case of fire. It represents fire exposure of a fully developed fire.
This method of test is only applicable to fire resistant ventilation ducts (same construction) with the following classification according to EN 13501-3:
- fire from inside and outside i ↔ o;
- applicable to a pressure difference up to 500 Pa in fire conditions;
NOTE 1 It is assumed that the duct A test(s) in accordance with EN 1366-1 has been performed with an under-pressure of minimum 500 Pa.
- with integrity (E) and insulation (I) criteria equal to or higher than the intended classification for the smoke extraction duct.
For the purposes of the test described in this document, the duct is referred to as duct C.
This test method has been designed to cover both vertical and horizontal smoke extraction ducts. A vertical system need not be evaluated to this method provided that:
- both horizontal (ho) and vertical (ve) classification according to EN 13501-3 has been obtained for the ventilation duct;
- it has been tested in a horizontal orientation to this method.
If the ventilation duct in practise is only used for vertical applications in smoke extraction systems, only vertical (ve) classification is obtained in accordance with EN 13501-3 and tested only in a vertical orientation to this test method.
This test method is suitable for ducts constructed from non-combustible materials (class A1 and A2-s1, d0 according to EN 13501-1).
NOTE 2 Reaction with components of the duct can affect the oxygen concentration inside the duct leading to inaccurate calculation of the leakage rate. If it is determined this has happened refer to Annex D.
This document applies to four sided rectangular and circular ducts only (with fire exposure on all sides). Ducts that utilize elements of construction for one, two or three sides are not covered. An alternative test method for one, two and three sided ducts will be developed separately.

This part of EN 13384 specifies methods for calculation of the thermal and fluid dynamic characteristics of chimneys serving more than one heating appliance.
This part of EN 13384 covers both the cases, either
a) where the chimney is connected with more than one connecting flue pipe from individual or several appliances in a multi-inlet arrangement; or
b) where the chimney is connected with an individual connecting flue pipe connecting more than one appliance in a cascade arrangement.
The case of multiple inlet cascade arrangement is covered by the case a).
This part of EN 13384 deals with chimneys operating under negative pressure conditions (there can be positive pressure condition in the connecting flue pipe) and with chimneys operating under positive pressure conditions and is valid for chimneys serving heating appliances for liquid, gaseous and solid fuels.
This part of EN 13384 does not apply to:
- chimneys with different thermal resistance or different cross-section in the various chimney segments. This part does not apply to calculate energy gain;
- chimneys with open fire places, e.g. open fire chimneys or chimney inlets which are normally intended to operate open to the room;
- chimneys which serve different kinds of heating appliances regarding natural draught, fan assisted, forced draught or combustion engine. Fan assisted appliances with draught diverter between the fan and the chimney are considered as natural draught appliances;
- chimneys with multiple inlets from more than 5 storeys. (This does not apply to balanced flue chimney.);
- chimneys serving heating appliances with open air supply through ventilation openings or air ducts, which are not installed in the same air supply pressure region (e.g. same side of building).
For positive pressure chimneys this part only applies if any heating appliance which is out of action can be positively isolated to prevent flue gas back flow.
