Hygrothermal performance of building equipment and industrial installations - Calculation of water vapour diffusion - Cold pipe insulation systems

This standard specifies a method to calculate the density of water vapour flow rate for cold pipes,  and the total amount of water absorption over time. This calculation method applies only when the water vapour partial pressure difference is perpendicular to the axis of the pipes and the water vapour partial pressure is constant at all points equidistant from the axis of the pipe.

Wärme- und feuchtetechnisches Verhalten von haus- und betriebstechnischen Anlagen - Berechnung der Wasserdampfdiffusion - Dämmung von Kälteleitungen

Diese Norm beschreibt Verfahren zur Berechnung der Wasserdampf-Diffusionsstromdichte für kälteleitungen und der Gesamtmenge an Wasserabsorption über die Zeit. Dieses Berechnungsverfahren gilt nur, wenn die Wasserdampfteildruckdifferenz senkrecht zur Rohrachse auftritt und der Wasserdampfteildruck an allen Punkten, die von der Rohrachse einen gleichen Abstand haben, konstant ist.

Performance hygrothermique des équipements de bâtiments et installations industrielles - Calcul de la diffusion de vapeur d'eau - Systèmes d'isolation de tuyauteries froides

La présente norme donne une méthode permettant de calculer la densité du flux de vapeur deau dans le cas des tuyauteries froides ainsi que la quantité totale d'eau absorbée en fonction du temps. Cette méthode de calcul ne s'applique que lorsque la différence de pression partielle de vapeur d'eau est perpendiculaire à l'axe du tuyau et que la pression partielle de vapeur d'eau est constante en tout point équidistant de l'axe du tuyau.

Experimental determination of the evaporation rate from the surfaceof a wet wick fabric16Bibliography18SIST EN 14114:2002

Thisflow of water vapour leads to an interstitial condensation in the insulation layer and/or dewformation on the surface of the pipe itself.
Interstitial condensation may cause the insulationmaterial to deteriorate and dew formation on the surface of a metal pipe may cause corrosionover time.
If the temperature is below 0 C ice will be formed and the methods of thisstandard will not apply.In periods where the dew point of the ambient air is higher than the temperature of the outersurface of the insulation surface condensation will occur.
This is dealt with in EN ISO 12241.Different measures are available to control water vapour transfer and reduce the amount ofcondensation.
The following are normally applied:a) Installation of a vapour retarder;b) Use of insulation materials with a high water vapour resistance factor (low permeability);c) Use of a vapour retarder and a capillary active fabric to continuously remove condensedwater from the pipe surface to the environment.Which protection measure is chosen depends on the ambient climate, the temperature of themedium in the pipe and the water vapour diffusion resistance of the insulation layer.
Thesuccess of any system is strongly dependent on workmanship and maintenance.
In any caseanti-corrosion measures should be applied to a metal pipe in severe conditions.The expected economic lifetime of an insulation system, assuming a maximum acceptableaccumulated moisture content, can be calculated using the methods in this standard.1 ScopeThis standard specifies a method to calculate the density of water vapour flow rate in cold pipeinsulation systems, and the total amount of water diffused into the insulation over time.
Thiscalculation method presupposes that water vapour can only migrate into the insulation system bydiffusion, with no contribution from airflow.
It also assumes the use of homogeneous, isotropicinsulation materials so that the water vapour partial pressure is constant at all points equidistantfrom the axis of the pipe.The standard is applicable when the temperature of the medium in the pipe is above 0 C. Itapplies to pipes inside buildings as well as in the open air.SIST EN 14114:2002

The vapour pressure at the surface shall be taken as the saturated vapour pressure atthat temperature, i.e. a relative humidity of 1,0.b) Ambient airOutside buildings, use either the annual mean temperature and vapour pressure or the monthlymean temperature and vapour pressure of the warmest month.Inside buildings, use the temperature and vapour pressure representative of the use of thebuilding in the warmest month of the year.
Methods for deriving internal conditions are givenin EN ISO 13788.NOTE
Use of the monthly mean vapour pressure gives results which are on the safe side.6 Calculation procedure6.1 GeneralThe equations given in Clause 4 allow the calculation of the total amount of water condensingwithin the cold pipe insulation and determination of whether condensation occurs within theinsulation material or only on the pipe surface.For the evaluation of the amount of water vapour transporte
