Hygrothermal Performance of Buildings - Calculation and Presentation of Climatic Data - Part 2: Hourly Data for Design Cooling Load
Also Known As:
DIN EN ISO 15927-2 is a standard that focuses on the hygrothermal performance of buildings, specifically in relation to the calculation and presentation of climatic data for the purpose of determining the design cooling load. This standard is part of a series of standards that provide guidelines and methods for evaluating the thermal performance of buildings.
The main objective of DIN EN ISO 15927-2 is to establish a standardized approach in defining and determining the monthly external design climate. This climate data is crucial in evaluating the cooling load requirements of buildings, which is essential for designing efficient and sustainable cooling systems.
The standard outlines the specific methods and calculations to be used in determining the design cooling load based on hourly data. It provides guidelines on how to collect and analyze climatic data, ensuring that it accurately reflects the external conditions that a building will experience throughout the year. This includes factors such as temperature, humidity, solar radiation, and wind speed.
By providing a standardized approach to calculating and presenting the climatic data, DIN EN ISO 15927-2 aims to facilitate consistency and accuracy in the design of cooling systems for buildings. This enables architects, engineers, and energy auditors to better assess the cooling load requirements and make informed decisions to optimize energy efficiency and comfort in buildings.
