Study on thermal comfort by using an atmospheric pressure dependent predicted mean vote index

Building and Environment, 2021
The thermal environment index Predicted Mean Vote is a descriptor largely applied to evaluate the comfort sensation of people in moderate environments. Software tools based on the Fanger's method have been created and used, which application is limited ...

Low-Cost Micro Predictive Mean Vote (PMV) Sensor and its Application for Smart Personal Ventilation Systems

2019 IEEE 32nd International Conference on Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS), 2019
We report a low-cost micro Predictive Mean Vote (PMV) sensor system for human thermal comfort with the improvement of measurement accuracy. The PMV sensor system consists of a Thermoresistive Micro Calorimetric Flow (TMCF) sensor, commercial temperature/relative humidity (RH) sensors and an MCU which can implement the PMV calculation based on ASHRAE ...

Uncertainty in the evaluation of the Predicted Mean Vote index using Monte Carlo analysis.

Journal of Environmental Management, 2018
Today, evaluation of thermohygrometric indoor conditions is one of the most useful tools for building design and re-design and can be used to determine energy consumption in conditioned buildings. Since the beginning of the Predicted Mean Vote index (PMV)

Object-oriented hygrothermal building physics library as a tool to predict and to ensure a thermal and hygric indoor comfort in building construction by using a Predicted-Mean-Vote (PMV) control ventilation system

2008
The indoor temperature and humidity conditions of the building envelope are important parameters for the evaluation of the thermal and hygric indoor comfort. In the research project GENSIM a new hygrothermal building library, based on the object- and equation-oriented model description language Modelica® has been developed by the Fraunhofer ...
