25、 electronic components, the climatic conditions are very important, as the function of the electronics is affected by the ambient temperature. Because of heat load and solar radiation, the enclosures become hot. Since the heat transfer via the enclosure surface is often not sufficient, a climate con
26、trol unit may be required to maintain tolerable enclosure internal conditions. For the enclosure design, the effect of the solar radiation was either estimated via the solar constant or added with a fixed value for heat load. Closer observation of the radiation allows for a more accurate and cost-ef
27、ficient method of enclosure thermal performance evaluation. There are existing standards defining the environmental conditions: for outdoor enclosures, IEC 61969-3 and EN 300 019 and, for indoor enclosures, IEC 60721, EN 300 019, and IEC 61587-1. Dimensional standards referred to for outdoor enclosu
28、res are IEC 61969-1 and IEC 61969-2, and, for indoor enclosures, IEC 60297-2, EN 300 119 and IEC 60917-2. As requested by users and manufacturers, a unified heat management property of empty enclosures had to be developed. This standard establishes a method of thermal performance evaluation for encl
29、osures. EN 62194:2005 5 METHOD OF EVALUATING THE THERMAL PERFORMANCE OF ENCLOSURES 1 Scope This International Standard provides a method of thermal performance evaluation for empty indoor enclosures according to IEC 60917 and IEC 60297, and, for outdoor enclosures according to IEC 61969. This standa
30、rd contains criteria to determine the thermal absorption factors relating to principles of enclosure design; internal heat load; sun radiation. The enclosure absorption factor is intended to provide a common value for comparing and selecting enclosures built in accordance with this standard. 2 Norma
