DEFINITIONSU.K.

A thermal energy meter is an instrument designed to measure the thermal energy which, in a thermal energy exchange circuit, is given up by a liquid called the thermal energy-conveying liquid.

A thermal energy meter is either a complete instrument or a combined instrument consisting of the sub-assemblies, flow sensor, temperature sensor pair, and calculator, as defined in Article 4(2), or a combination thereof

θ=the temperature of the thermal energy-conveying liquid;
θin=the value of θ at the inlet of the thermal energy exchange circuit;
θοut=the value of θ at the outlet of the thermal energy exchange circuit;
Δθ=the temperature difference θin — θοut with Δθ ≥ 0;
θmax=the upper limit of θ for the thermal energy meter to function correctly within the MPEs;
θmin=the lower limit of θ for the thermal energy meter to function correctly within the MPEs;
Δθmax=the upper limit of Δθ for the thermal energy meter to function correctly within the MPEs;
Δθmin=the lower limit of Δθ for the thermal energy meter to function correctly within the MPEs;
q=the flow rate of the thermal energy conveying liquid;
qs=the highest value of q that is permitted for short periods of time for the thermal energy meter to function correctly;
qp=the highest value of q that is permitted permanently for the thermal energy meter to function correctly;
qi=the lowest value of q that is permitted for the thermal energy meter to function correctly;
P=the thermal power of the thermal energy exchange;
Ps=the upper limit of P that is permitted for the thermal energy meter to function correctly.

Timeline of Changes

This timeline shows the different versions taken from EUR-Lex before exit day and during the implementation period as well as any subsequent versions created after the implementation period as a result of changes made by UK legislation.

The dates for the EU versions are taken from the document dates on EUR-Lex and may not always coincide with when the changes came into force for the document.

For any versions created after the implementation period as a result of changes made by UK legislation the date will coincide with the earliest date on which the change (e.g an insertion, a repeal or a substitution) that was applied came into force.
