BS EN 14037 discusses free-hanging heating and cooling surfaces for water with a temperature below 120°C. BS EN 14037-2 is the second part of BS EN 14037 multi-series and discusses the test method for thermal output.
BS EN 14037-2 describes the test method and the test installation for determining the thermal output of prefabricated ceiling-mounted radiant panels according to the specifications of EN 14037-1:2016,
BS EN 14037-2 on prefabricated ceiling-mounted radiant panels for space heating is useful for:
Heated and chilled ceiling radiant panels falling into the field of application hereinafter stated are traded based on their thermal output. For evaluating and comparing different heated and chilled ceiling surfaces it is, therefore, necessary to refer to a heating stipulated value.
BS EN 14037-2 provides a test method to determine the thermal output of prefabricated ceiling-mounted radiant panels for space heating. The test is carried out in a testing system, which consists of a closed booth with controlled temperatures of the inside surfaces plus a set of two master panels built.
BS EN 14037-2 guides you with the test booth and master panels required for the test procedure.
The test method in BS EN 14037-2 for measuring the thermal output consists of the measurement of mass flow and enthalpy difference between inlet and outlet (by weighing method). Other measurement methods shall guarantee in minimum the precision obtained by the weighing method.
BS EN 14037-2:2016 supersedes BS EN 14037-2:2003 which is withdrawn. BS EN 14037-2:2016 includes some technical changes with respect to BS EN 14037-2:2003. These include:
