Quantitative measurement of productivity loss due to thermal discomfort

open access: yesEnergy and Buildings, 2011
Abstract The effects on human performance of elevated temperature causing thermal discomfort were investigated. Recruited subjects performed neurobehavioural tests examining different component skills, and addition and typing tasks that were used to replicate office work. The results show that thermal discomfort caused by elevated air temperature had

Thermal Discomfort Detection Using Thermal Imaging

open access: yesVolume 6: Energy, 2017
Effective energy management in the buildings is one of the key factors impacting the overall energy consumption, and thus has important consequences on climate and the environment. Detecting human thermal discomfort can be potentially used to reduce energy consumption in both buildings and vehicles, while maintaining the thermal comfort sensation of ...

Differences between EEG during thermal discomfort and thermal displeasure

Building and Environment, 2021
Abstract This study used electroencephalograms (EEGs) to investigate thermal discomfort. The thermal discomfort defined in this study considers both thermal displeasure induced by step-changes and thermal discomfort induced by temperature ramping. A total of 108 people in their 20s and 30s participated in the experiments.
