18、building components“, the secretariat of which is held by SIS. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by May 2001, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by May
19、2001. This European Standard has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s). According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the follo
20、wing countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. The annexes A and B are normative. The ann

It addresses specific problems when testing, according to European product standards, thick high and medium thermal resistance specimens with a heat flow meter or guarded hot plate. In this standard the refe
22、rences to ISO 8301:1991 and ISO 8302:1991 are limited to some experimental procedures and to the error analysis. The guarded hot plate and heat flow meter methods are described in EN 12667; assessment procedures are described in EN 1946-2:1999 and EN 1946-3:1999. A CEN Report CR xxx, The use of inte
23、rpolating equations in relation to measurements on thick specimens, (under preparation) supplies additional information on the use of interpolating functions to predict the thickness effect. Among existing apparatus for steady state thermal testing, guarded hot plate apparatus and heat flow meter ap
24、paratus can be operated up to specimen thicknesses of 100 mm to 150 mm if the accuracy has to be kept within 2 % (and possibly 1 %), while the accuracy of guarded and calibrated hot box apparatus, which can test thicker specimens, is not as good as that of the previously mentioned two test apparatus
25、 As the thickness of many insulating products exceeds 100 mm to 150 mm, there is a need for a testing procedure that will supply enough information to predict the thermal performance of insulation products at their actual thicknesses. Different options are offered in this standard; the most appropr
26、iate one may be indicated in product standards. When the thickness effect is relevant, i.e. when the thermal resistance of a thick product cannot be calculated as the sum of the thermal resistances of slices cut from the product, some material parameters are determined for use in interpolating equat
27、ions. The procedure to determine these parameters is split into preliminary and routine measurements and evaluations, see C.1. Background information and additional information on the use of interpolating equations is to be found in CR xxx.Page 4 EN 12939:2000 1S c o p e This standard gives the proc
28、edures to determine the thermal resistance of products the thicknesses of which exceed the maximum thickness for guarded hot plate or heat flow meter apparatus. In any case most of the procedures described in this standard require apparatus that allows tests on specimens up to 100 mm thick. This sta
29、ndard gives guidelines to assess the relevance of the thickness effect, i.e. to establish whether the thermal resistance of a thick product can or cannot be calculated as the sum of the thermal resistances of slices cut from the product, these guidelines complement the indications given in ISO 8302:
30、1991 on the guarded hot plate apparatus. This standard describes testing conditions which prevent the onset of convection. which could take place in some products under the considered temperature differences and thicknesses. 2 Normative references This standard incorporates by dated or undated refer

This standard gives neither relevant design criteria and proven performance checks nor the determination of apparat
43、us emissivity; these, as well as specific apparatus requirements applicable to the procedures described in this standard, are to be found either in EN 1946-2:1999 or EN 1946-3:1999, according to the apparatus used. Only those apparatus requirements affecting specimen sizes and tolerances are given i
44、n this standard. When it is not explicitly stated otherwise, guarded hot plate apparatus requirements are assumed to be applicable also to heat flow meter apparatus. Some recommended sizes and tolerances are supplied in this standard. In 4.2 and 4.3 requirements for common testing conditions are spe

More information is given in annex A. 4.2 Maximum specimen thickness The maximum specimen thickness should be according to EN 12667, see limit values in its table A.1 for some common apparatus sizes. See also annex A of this standard for more information concerning low density specimens.Page

The requirements of A.3.3 of EN 12667 shall be met, exte

The following two testing conditions shall be considered in relation to this standard for both guarded hot plate and heat flow meter apparatus: a) Tests on non rigid specimens achieving a good contact with the apparatus and w
48、hose thermal resistance is greater than or equal to 0,3 m 2 K/W, e.g. mineral wool boards or elastomeric cellular boards. In this case the departures from a true plane result in an error in the measurement of specimen thickness. This error shall be less than 0,5 % (see table A.1 of EN 12667). For de
49、tailed information see annex A of this standard. b) Tests on rigid specimens having a thermal resistance greater than or equal to 0,3 m 2 K/W, e.g. polystyrene or rigid polyurethane boards. In this case the departures from a true plane are the source of contact resistances; these shall be less than 0,5 % of the specimen thermal resistance (see table A.2 of EN 12667). This standard does not cover special testing techniques (use of cont
