Indoor thermal comfort and Carbon Dioxide concentration

2017 Moratuwa Engineering Research Conference (MERCon), 2017
Carbon Dioxide (CO 2 ) is considered as a useful and easily measurable indicator for the ventilation and air quality of the indoor environment. Although this pollutant itself is not causing serious health issues with lower concentration and short durations, the higher concentration can indicate the lower ventilation level and possible air contamination

Constructing thermal comfort: Investigating the effect of vegetation on indoor thermal comfort through a four season thermal comfort quasi-experiment

Building and Environment, 2014
Abstract Several short term studies have found evidence that plants may improve occupant thermal comfort, yet this phenomena has not yet been rigorously evaluated. The aim of this paper is to present the results of a quasi-experiment that evaluated the effect of indoor plants on the thermal comfort of 67 office workers within an office building in De
