Water based surface embedded heating and cooling systems - Part 2: Floor heating: Prove methods for the determination of the thermal output using calculation and test methods

This European Standard specifies the boundary conditions and the prove methods for the determination of the thermal output of hot water floor heating systems as a function of the temperature difference between the heating medium and the room temperature.
This standard shall be applied to commercial trade and practical engineering if proved and certifiable values of the thermal output shall be used.
This European Standard applies to heating and cooling systems embedded into the enclosure surfaces of the room to be heated or to be cooled. This Part of this European Standard applies to hot water floor heating systems. Applying of Part 5 of this European Standard requires the prior use of this Part of this European Standard. Part 5 of this European Standard deals with the conversion of the thermal output of floor heating systems determined in Part 2 into the thermal output of heating surfaces embedded in walls and ceilings as well as into the thermal output of cooling surfaces embedded in floors, walls and ceilings.
The thermal output is proved by a calculation method (Clause 6) and by a test method (Clause 9). The calculation method is applicable to systems corresponding to the definitions in EN 1264-1 (type A, type B, type C, type D). For systems not corresponding to these definitions, the test method shall be used. The calculation method and the test method are consistent with each other and provide correlating and adequate prove results.
The prove results, expressed depending on further parameters, are the standard specific thermal output and the associated standard temperature difference between the heating medium and the room temperature as well as fields of characteristic curves showing the relationship between the specific thermal output and the temperature difference between the heating medium and the room.

The limit curve (see Figure A.5) gives the relationship between the specific thermal output and the temperature difference between the heating medium and the room for cases where the maximum permissible difference between surface temperature and indoor room temperature (9 K or 15 K respectively) is achieved.

The factor fG shall be determined as follows, depending on the ratio su/T: For su/T ≤ 0,173, fG = 1 applies. For su/T > 0,173, the following equation applies: TqeTqqqfTs375,0)375,0(375,0)173,0/(20375,02⋅⋅⋅−−=−⋅−G;G;maxG,maxG,Gu (23) where SIST EN 1264-2:2009+A1:2013

∆ϑH, G is designated as standard temperature difference between the heating medium and the room ∆ϑN (see Figure A.5). These values serve as characteristic values in the system comparison. The maximum possible value of the specific thermal output qG, max for an isothermal surface temperature distribution is represented by the ordinate value for ϑF, m = ϑF, max on the basic characteristic curve (see Figure A.1). Table A.12 gives values for qG, max, depending on the maximum floor surface temperature ϑF, max and the standard indoor room temperature ϑi. If (due to calculation and interpolation inaccuracies as well as linearization) higher values for qG than qG, max are calculated using Equations (18), (21), (24), qG, max has to be used. 6.6 Influence of pipe material, pipe wall thickness and pipe sheathing on the specific thermal output The factors B0 are specified in Equations (4a) and (11) for a pipe heat conductivity λR, 0 = 0,35 W/(m ⋅ K), a wall thickness sR, 0 = 0,002 m.

1/α at the floor surface is simulated by the heat transfer layer (see key 2).The two lateral heating pipes serve as a protection field to enable the optimum undisturbed temperature field around the central pipe. The heat transfer resistance 1/α at the floor surface, given by the basic characteristic curve, is replaced by the heat conduction resistance s/λ of the heat transfer layer (see key 2) of equal magnitude (mean value): 1/α = s/λ = 0,092 6 m2 ⋅ K/W
(32) The tolerance on the value s/λ is ± 0,01 m2 ⋅ K/W. The temperature drop of the sample ϑV –ϑR (see Figure A.8) shall not exceed 0,5 K. The temperature rise of the water flow in the cooling plates ϑC,out – ϑC,in (see Figure A.7) shall not exceed 0,3 K. ϑV

214,F5,Fmax,Fϑ+ϑ=ϑ where i,Fϑ are the local floor surface temperatures (measuring points) m,Fϑ is the average floor surface temperature max,Fϑis the maximum floor surface temperature In the case of not feasible values of the measured temperature field caused by inhomogeneity of the screed, another part of the surface shall be taken. NOTE 1 Because of the fact that the temperature drop of the sample ϑV –ϑR is very little and the fact that the temperature measurements shall be carried out in the undisturbed area around the central pipe no variation is necessary depending on the laying system (spirally or meandering). NOTE 2 The explanations above refer to the most usual case that the floor heating system is characterized by the repetition of the pipe spacing. The test sample in Figure A.6 which is symmetrical with respect to the central pipe is based on this fact. If another dimension characterizes the system the procedure has to be adjusted. In a first working step the test is realized for R,B = 0. The average floor surface temperature ϑF, m is determining the specific thermal output, and the maximum floor surface temperature ϑF, max is limiting the thermal output. The measurement is carried out when steady state conditions are reached and a temperature of both cooling plates of ϑi = 20 °C ± 0,5 K is maintained. Under these conditions the average temperature of the heating medium ϑH is set to achieve a maximum floor surface temperature of ϑF, max = 29 °C (i.e. ϑF, max – ϑi = 9 K), and in this case the difference between the average temperature of the heating medium and the temperature of the cooling plates ϑH - ϑi = ∆ϑH = ∆ϑN (standard value) applies. If it is not possible to set the value of the temperature difference (ϑF, max – ϑi) exactly to 9 K, a value slightly below and a value slightly above 9 K shall be set and the results used to formulate a mean value.

(35) Using Equation (35), the gradients of the characteristic curves KH(Rλ, B) can be calculated for thermal resistances Rλ, B = 0,05 m2 ⋅ K/W, 0,10 m2 ⋅ K/W and 0,15 m2 ⋅ K/W. In order to establish the gradient of the characteristic curve HK′ to be used in Equation (35), another measurement like the one described above for Rλ, B = 0, has to be carried out, but with a resistance of the floor covering B,λR′ = 0,15 m2 ⋅ K/W ± 0,01 m2 ⋅ K/W. By doing this measurement, the limit specific thermal output Gq′ and the limit temperature difference ∆GH,ϑ′are determined, which give the needed value HK′: GH,B,HHϑ′′=′′=′û)(GqRKK (36) In accordance with the following Equation (37), the limit temperature differences ∆ϑH, G for the heat conduction resistances Rλ, B > 0 are given by the interfaces of the characteristic curves and the limit curve resulting from the measurement data and the gradient KH of the characteristic curve calculated from Equation (35): ∆ϑH, G = ϕ ⋅ GGqqqq′+−′−⋅′−⋅′NGHNHGHNNK)ûû(ûû,,ϑϑϑϑ

Between the test equipment and the floor of the booth insulation is recommended (key 3). The essential parts of the equipment are a heating plate (key 2) in accordance with the cooling plate in Figure A.7, a heat flow meter plate (key 1) with a well-known thermal conduction resistance RHFM, temperature measuring sensors on the surfaces and a globe thermometer Gl according to EN 14037-2.

Its thermal conduction resistance depends on the temperature t as follows: RHFM = - 0,000188 ⋅ t + 0,0578 m2·K/W with t = (ϑHFM,a + ϑHFM,b)/2 Temperatures shall be measured with a permissible uncertainty of ± 0,1 K. Temperature differences shall be measured with a permissible uncertainty of ± 0,05 K. The temperature drop of the heating medium shall not exceed 0,5 K if possible. Two test procedures are necessary. The globe thermometer in both cases is situated 0,75 m above the centre of the heating surface, i.e. in test 2 higher above the floor of the test booth by the thickness of the carpet. Test 1 Test 1 aims to the determination of the heat exchange resistance R. In this test the heating surface is the upper surface of the heat flow meter plate and no carpet exists, see Figure A.10.

This attribute is necessary for using this value for the determination of the thermal output according to the calculation method (Clause 6) and to the test procedure (Clause 9). For that reason the supplement "effective" is used.
