Thermal sensation and comfort models for non-uniform and transient environments: Part III: whole-body sensation and comfort [PDF]
A three-part series presents the development of models for predicting the local thermal sensation (Part I) and local thermal comfort (Part II) of different parts of the human body, and also the whole-body sensation and comfort (Part III) that result from

Improving predicted mean vote with inversely determined metabolicrate [PDF]
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.

Derivation and validation of a whole-body dynamic mean thermal sensation model [PDF]
A new model predicting the whole-body Dynamic Mean thermal sensation Vote (DMV) is described. The model is useful for evaluating transient thermal conditions but is limited to uniform ones.
