Abstract

In the previous two chapters, we investigated the mutually dependent relationships between indoor climate and human thermal adaptation through comparative online surveys and field studies. However, both the online survey and field study often accompany with complicated cofounding factors which is extremely difficult to clarify the effect of each factor. From this point of view, a large sample size survey is suitable for phenomenon description but cannot explain the underlying reasons. When studying the thermal adapting process, we intuitively noticed that physiological acclimatization may be one of the driving forces behind subjective adaptations. With these considerations, this chapter explores physiological acclimation through climate chamber experiments.
