Introduction
The set of EPB standards, Technical Reports and supporting tools
In order to facilitate the necessary overall consistency and coherence, in terminology, approach,
input/output relations and formats, for the whole set of EPB-standards, the following documents and
tools are available:
a) a document with basic principles to be followed in drafting EPB-standards: CEN/TS 16628:2014,
Energy Performance of Buildings - Basic Principles for the set of EPB standards [1];
b) a document with detailed technical rules to be followed in drafting EPB-standards;
CEN/TS 16629:2014, Energy Performance of Buildings - Detailed Technical Rules for the set of EPB-
standards [2]; and
c) the detailed technical rules are the basis for the following tools:
1) a common template for each EPB-standard, including specific drafting instructions for the
relevant clauses,
2) a common template for each technical report that accompanies an EPB standard or a cluster of
EPB standards, including specific drafting instructions for the relevant clauses, and
3) a common template for the spreadsheet that accompanies each EPB standard, to demonstrate
the correctness of the EPB calculation procedures.
Each EPB standard follows the basic principles and the detailed technical rules and relates to the
overarching EPB-standard, EN ISO 52000-1:2017 [3].
One of the main purposes of the revision of the EPB-standards is to enable that laws and regulations
directly refer to the EPB-standards and make compliance with them compulsory. This requires that the
set of EPB-standards consists of a systematic, clear, comprehensive and unambiguous set of energy
performance procedures. The number of options provided is kept as low as possible, taking into
account national and regional differences in climate, culture and building tradition, policy and legal
frameworks (subsidiarity principle). For each option, an informative default option is provided
(Annex B).
Rationale behind the EPB Technical Reports
There is a risk that the purpose and limitations of the EPB standards will be misunderstood, unless the
background and context to their contents – and the thinking behind them – is explained in some detail
to readers of the standards. Consequently, various types of informative contents are recorded and made
available for users to properly understand, apply and nationally or regionally implement the EPB
standards.
If this explanation would have been attempted in the standards themselves, the result is likely to be
confusing and cumbersome, especially if the standards are implemented or referenced in national or
regional building codes.
Therefore each EPB standard is accompanied by an informative technical report, like this one, where all
informative content is collected, to ensure a clear separation between normative and informative
contents (see CEN/TS 16629 [2]):
— to avoid flooding and confusing the actual normative part with informative content;
— to reduce the page count of the actual standard; and
7

---------------------- Page: 9 ----------------------

SIST-TP CEN/TR 16798-6:2018
CEN/TR 16798-6:2017 (E)
— to facilitate understanding of the set of EPB standards.
This was also one of the main recommendations from the European CENSE project [5] that laid the
foundation for the preparation of the set of EPB standards.
This Technical Report
This Technical Report accompanies the suite of EPB standards on the calculation of the energy
performance of ventilation systems. It relates to the European standards EN 16798-5-1 and
EN 16798-5-2, which form part of a set of standards related to the evaluation of the energy
performance of buildings (EPB).
The role and the positioning of the accompanied standards in the set of EPB standards is defined in the
Introduction to the standards.
Accompanying spreadsheet(s)
Concerning the accompanied standards EN 16798-5-1 and EN 16798-5-2, the following spreadsheets
were produced:
— on EN 16798-5-1; and
— on EN 16798-5-2.
In this Technical Report, examples of each of these calculation sheets are included.

5 Brief description of the methods and routing
5.1 Output of the methods
The accompanied EPB standards, EN 16798-5-1 and EN 16798-5-2, cover two different methods for the
calculation of the energy performance of ventilation and/or air conditioning systems.
Because the scope and the applicability range of the two methods are different, it was decided to divide
the description in two separate documents.
5.2 General description of the methods
5.2.1 Method 1
The method covers the calculation of:
— the volume flow rates provided to the ventilation zones served by the system, based on the
required values;
— the supply air temperature and moisture content, based on the required values;
— the ventilation generation input (electric energy required by fans);

CEN/TR 16798-6:2017 (E)
— the humidification generation input;
— heating (including humidification in case of reheat with adiabatic humidification) and cooling input
to the air handling unit (to be transferred to the connected heating and cooling distribution systems
calculation);
— the recoverable heat or cold losses from ventilation/air conditioning system for heating or cooling;
— the ventilation auxiliary energy (electric energy for drives of, e.g. rotary or pumped circuit heat
recovery devices, control devices, actuators, etc.);
— the electric energy required for humidification (only for specific humidifier types); and
— the humidification auxiliary energy.
The time interval of the output can be:
a) hourly, or
b) bin,
according to the application of the standard and interval of the input.
5.2.2 Method 2
The method covers the calculation of:
— the volume flow rates provided to a single ventilation zone (no multi ventilation zones modelling)
served by the system, based on the req
