Improving predicted mean vote with inversely determined metabolic rate [PDF]
Sustainable Cities and Society, 2020 Inaccurate thermal comfort prediction would lead to thermal discomfort and energy wastage of overcooling/overheating. Predicted Mean Vote (PMV) is widely used for thermal comfort management in air-conditioned buildings. The metabolic rate is the most important input of the PMV.
