EN 14114:2002 (E)3ForewordThis document (EN 10264-1:2002) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 89"Thermal performance of buildings and building components"", the secretariat of which isheld by SIS.This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publicationof an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by September 2002, and conflictingnational standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by September 2002.The enquiry version was designated prEN ISO 15758. However, as a result of the enquiry,ISO decided to decouple from the Vienna Agreement; CEN and ISO will proceed topublication on their own.This standard is one of a series of standards which specify calculation methods for the designand evaluation of the thermal and moisture related performance properties of buildings andbuilding components.The Annexes A and B are informative.According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizationsof the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium,Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy,Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and theUnited Kingdom.SIST EN 14114:2002



EN 14114:2002 (E)4IntroductionIf the thermal insulation of a cold pipe system is not completely water vapour tight, there willbe a flow of water vapour from the warm environment to the surface of the pipe, whenever thetemperature of the surface of the cold pipe is below the dew point of the ambient air.
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
