Abstract The Fanger's predicted mean vote (PMV) model is used to evaluate thermal comfort. However, when PMV is compared to people's real thermal sensations, collected in field studies, some discrepancies are verified. One of the components for the calculation of PMV is clothing surface temperature (tcl), which can be a factor that contributes ...

Improved algorithm for adaptive coefficient of adaptive Predicted Mean Vote (aPMV)
Building and Environment, 2019Abstract Accurate prediction of thermal comfort is the premise of proper management of the indoor environment to avoid overcooling/overheating discomfort with energy saving. Adaptive Predicted Mean Vote (aPMV) has been verified for the thermal comfort prediction in both free-running and air-conditioned buildings, and has been stipulated in the ...

A theoretical adaptive model of thermal comfort – Adaptive Predicted Mean Vote (aPMV)
Building and Environment, 2009This paper presents in detail a theoretical adaptive model of thermal comfort based on the “Black Box” theory, taking into account factors such as culture, climate, social, psychological and behavioural adaptations, which have an impact on the senses used to detect thermal comfort. The model is called the Adaptive Predicted Mean Vote (aPMV) model.

Indoor Air, 2020
Thermal adaptations, as feedbacks of occupants to physical stimuli, extend thermal comfort zone thereby reducing building energy consumption effectively. The rational approach models thermal comfort from the perspective of the body's heat balance, but is limited in explaining the thermal adaptations.

Dynamic Predicted Mean Vote: An IoT-BIM integrated approach for indoor thermal comfort optimization
Automation in Construction, 2021Abstract The building sector is a major source of energy consumption mainly due to the use of Heat Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems, to achieve the indoor thermal comfort of occupants. To reach the optimal energy-efficient indoor temperature that satisfies thermal comfort, this paper describes an optimization approach named ‘DynamicPMV’

Extended predicted mean vote of thermal adaptations reinforced around thermal neutrality
Indoor Air, 2021Predicted mean vote (PMV) is a prevailing thermal comfort model adopted by thermal comfort standards. To extend its ability in explaining thermal adaptations, the PMV is multiplied by an extension factor. However, the original extended PMV (ePMV) cannot account for thermal adaptations around thermal neutrality, resulting in deviation around thermal ...
