The responsible German body involved in its preparation was the Normenausschuss Heiz- und Raumlufttechnik (Heating
4、 and Ventilation Technology Standards Committee), Technical Committee NA 041-02-51 AA Lftung von Wohnungen. The German national mirror committees voted against the publication of this standard. However, because all other CEN Members voted for the publication of the final draft in the final voting st
5、age, the standard was accepted as an EN. Germany is therefore obliged to adopt this European Standard. The present standard is addressed to the relevant national committees who are responsible for developing standards and guidelines for the design of residential ventilation systems. It is not addres
6、sed to commercial organizations who are involved in the design, construction and operation of residential ventilation systems. In Germany the design of residential ventilation systems is governed by DIN 1946-6 and DIN 18017-3. The requirements of DIN EN 15665 will be taken into consideration in futu

DIN EN 15665:2009-07 EN 15665:2009 (E) 4 Introduction Nowadays most ventilation requirements either in regulations or in standards are based on required airflow
23、 rates. Also, there is relatively limited knowledge about the basis for ventilation flow rates. Airflow rates are however probably the easiest way to express ventilation requirements. Nevertheless it is worthwhile to consider in a more detailed way the influence of the dilution due to air change on
24、human exposure, in order to understand the ventilation requirements expressed in terms of flow rates. Figure 1 explains the process from pollutant to health risk. This European Standard does not deal with health effects, health risks (linked to noise, tobacco), dose and energy impact. This European
25、Standard is not intended to design and/or dimension a ventilation system. This European Standard is intended to support any regulation or standard. This European Standard is intended to give guidance to those with responsibility for producing requirements and standards for residential ventilation sy
26、stems. It is recommended that future revisions of relevant regulations and standards should consider the content of this European Standard. Figure 1 Pollutant process DIN EN 15665:2009-07 EN 15665:2009 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard sets out criteria to assess the performance of residential ve
27、ntilation systems (for new, existing and refurbished buildings) which serve single family, multi family and apartment type dwellings throughout the year. This European Standard specifies ways to determine performance criteria to be used for design levels in regulations and/or standards. These criter
28、ia are meant to be applied to, in particular: mechanically ventilated building (mechanical exhaust, mechanical supply or balanced system); natural ventilation with stack effect for passive ducts; hybrid system switching between mechanical and natural modes; windows opening by manual operation for ai
29、ring or summer comfort issues. This European Standard considers aspects of hygiene and indoor air quality. Health risk from exposure to tobacco smoke is excluded from this European Standard. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this docum

32、fuse NOTE 1 These pollutants are represented by materials, furnishings and products used in the dwelling. NOTE 2 These pollutants also include those resulting from human occupation such as water vapour and carbon dioxide from respiration. 3.2 specific pollutants group of indoor pollutants which are
33、of short duration, and in specific locations in the dwelling NOTE These pollutants are mainly represented by water vapour, carbon dioxide and odours, whose production is related to specific human activities in the dwelling (such as cooking, washing, bathing).

34、 3.3 parameter pollutant or marker that is used in the expression of a requirement NOTE 1 More than one parameter may be used at the same time and combined. NOTE 2 Relative humidity, odours, CO2are examples of parameters. 3.4 criteria way (method) to express the required performance NOTE Criteria ca
35、n be, for example, numbers of hours above 70 % RH in living room calculated on a standard week basis, number of minutes to reach 25 % of the initial pollution concentration based on a standard pollutant emission in a toilet, average level of CO2above outside in bedroom on a 10 hours night with two s
36、tandard persons. 3.5 requirement level of required performance NOTE Requirements can be, for example, “maximum of 100 hours above 70 % in living room“, “less than 10 minutes to reach 25 % of initial “, “less than 800 10-6CO2(generally named ppm) as an average“, “minimum of 8 l/s in toilet“, “35 l/s
37、for global ventilation in standard inside/outside conditions“. 4 Symbols and units For the purposes of this document, the symbols and units given in EN 12792:2003 apply. 5 Needs for residential ventilation: main issues 5.1 General There shall be adequate means of ventilation provided for the buildin
38、g and its occupants. 5.2 General sources of pollutants The following sources of pollutants influencing the ventilation in dwelling shall be considered: Outside environment, such as climate, earth (which can provide radon); Human respiration, odours; Human behaviour, such as cooking, bathing, drying
39、machine, cleaning; Emissions of building materials and furniture; Emissions of cleaning material; Combustion appliance. Each of these sources can produce pollutants. DIN EN 15665:2009-07 EN 15665:2009 (E) 7 5.3 Consequences of this pollution inside a dwelling Depending on the pollutant sources given
40、 in 5.2, the following consequences can be observed: a) For the building: risk of condensation, risk of dryness, mould growth, fungis, dust mites, interstitial condensation; b) For human health and comfort: carbon monoxide, CO2level and water vapour, temperature, air velocity, germs, microorganisms,
41、 formaldehydes, VOC (volatile organic compounds), “volatile organic compound, odours, noise from outside. 5.4 Expectations about ventilation Considering the pollutant sources and their consequences, the adequate means of ventilation should be provided for one or more of the following purposes: a) Di
42、lution and/or removal of background pollutants such as substances emitted by furnishings and building materials and cleaning materials used in the building, odours, metabolic CO2and water vapour; b) Dilution and/or removal of specific pollutants from identifiable local sources such as toilet odours,
43、 cooking odours, water vapour from cooking or bathing, combustion products; c) Provision of outdoor air for occupants; d) Provision of control of temperature effects (over heating and draught); e) Provision of air for combustion appliances. All these purposes shall be considered with regard to the h
44、ealth and comfort of the occupants and integrity of the building. NOTE 1 Ventilation is primarily concerned with the first three purposes (a) to c) but it is linked to the last two (d and e). NOTE 2 When providing ventilation, other aspects of performance including thermal comfort, durability, fire
45、safety, noise and energy use should be considered. 6 General approach 6.1 Questions, assumptions and way of proceeding Before designing a ventilation system, the people involved in regulations and/or standards shall answer lots of questions and assumptions that have to be taken into account for calc
46、ulation. The result of this calculation can be expressed by a continuous explicit airflow rate (e.g. mechanical ventilation with constant airflow rate) or an equivalent airflow in terms of air quality according to conventional assumptions applicable in each country (e.g. Technical Approvals). The fo
47、llowing way of proceeding shall be used in order to determine airflow rates (see Figure 2): a) Step 1: verify if there is any applicable regulation (health, fire protection, noise, gas, etc.) in the country that leads to certain limit in airflows; b) Step 2: identify the parameters which are taken i
48、nto account or which are considered as relevant; c) Step 3: at this step of the procedure, take into account the 3 following points: DIN EN 15665:2009-07 EN 15665:2009 (E) 8 1) for each parameter, a detailed description shall be made of the nature, sources, distribution and time dependence; 2) for e
49、ach parameter, the appropriate criteria shall be chosen as described in Clause 7; 3) assumptions for buildings, ventilation systems, outdoor conditions and occupancy patterns shall be described corresponding to the table at the chosen level described in 6.2; d) Step 4: use the appropriate calculation method able to handle the chosen criteria and assumptions; e) Step 5: make requirem
