For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

(K) (1)where Vθ
is the supply temperature of heating/cooling medium in K; Rθ
is the return temperature of heating/cooling medium in K; iθ
is the design indoor temperature in K. In this way, the effect of the temperature drop is taken into account. 4.2 Performance characteristic curve The performance characteristic curve describes the relationship between the heat flow intensity q of a system and the required heating or cooling medium differential temperature. As a simplification, the heat flow intensity is taken to be proportional to the differential temperature of the heating or cooling medium: q = KH .Hθ∆
( W /m²) (2) where KH is the equivalent heat transmission coefficient determined by one of the following equations depending on the type of system:
∏⋅=imiiaB)(
(W/m²K) in accordance with EN 1264-2;
= 1/(Rw + Rr + Rx + Ri ) (W/m²K) in accordance with Annex B of EN 15377-1:2008;
= 1/(RHC + Ri )
(W/m²K) in accordance with Annex C of EN 15377-1:2008. KH may also be determined by Finite Element Method or Finite Difference Method calculations according to Annex D of EN 15377-1:2008. 4.3 Field of system characteristic curves The field of characteristic curves of a surface heating or cooling system with a specific pipe spacing, T, shall at least contain performance characteristic curves for no surface covering, Rλ,B = 0, and additionally it is recommended, if applicable (floor systems), for three different values of heat conduction resistance of the surface covering, in accordance with EN 15377-1 or EN 1264-2. Further, the limit curves shall be included for floor systems (see Figure 1). If the field of characteristic curves for floor heating is based on experimental testing (EN 1264-2), it is acceptable to provide performance characteristic curves by testing for no covering, Rλ,Β = 0, and for heat conduction resistance of the covering, Rλ,Β = 0,15 m² K/W, and establish the remaining performance characteristic curves by linear interpolation. 4.4 Limit curves The limit curves in the field of system characteristic curves describe the relationship between the heating or cooling medium differential temperature and the heat flow intensity for the limit case, with a temperature drop between supply and return water, waterθ∆, and the specified maximum or minimum surface temperature, SIST EN 15377-2:2008
