Thermal Comfort in the Home [PDF]
The aim of this chapter is to investigate ways in which the comfort levels in traditional Humli housing might be improved using simple, low cost strategies. As building homes is an integral part of people’s lives and culture, they inherently are part of a HCD program.

Numerous indices for the assessment and design of thermal comfort conditions have been developed during the past 50 to 60 years. One of the most widely used indices in moderate thermal environments, the PMV index (predicted mean vote), predicts the mean value of the overall thermal sensation of a large group of persons as a function of activity ...

International standards give criteria for thermal comfort based on the evaluation of room temperatures and their deviation from the comfort temperature. The static approach to thermal comfort is derived from the physics of heat transfer and combined with an empirical fit to sensation.

The perception of thermal comfort
International Journal of Biometeorology, 196526 subjects were exposed either to constant temperature in a water bath or to different air temperatures. A differentiation was made between the comfort temperature and the conscious cutaneous thermal sensation.When thermal sensation of the hand was tested for different internal temperatures it was found that the same superficial (skin) temperature ...

Building Systems Division of Yamatake-Honeywell Co., has developed a new TY4700 Comfort Sensor that revolutionizes indoor comfort control. Thermal comfort depends on many factors-the new sensor's output temperature signal is a combination of air temperature, radiant temperature and air velocity.

The general thermal comfort theory assumed that there are only six parameters which affect the thermal sensation of a person. However, some studies show that a different group of people might be comfortable at different thermal conditions. Thermal comfort researchers predict that there might be other factors, such as adaptation, which affect human ...

Thermal comfort in milking parlours
Applied Ergonomics, 1978The frequent complaints of adverse conditions associated with milking often relate to thermal discomfort. Three farms providing 13 milkers were selected for a survey to establish details of the thermal environment most acceptable and practical to achieve in milking parlours.
