Abstract

This chapter introduces the definition of thermal comfort, human thermoregulation process, thermal comfort equation and thermal comfort standards. There are six basic factors influencing thermal comfort, including air temperature, mean radiant temperature, air velocity, vapor pressure, clothing level and metabolic rate. Human thermoregulation is a very complicated process and is achieved via autonomic (i.e., involuntary) and behavioral (i.e., voluntary) responses. Human thermal equilibrium is affected by the heat generated by human metabolism and the heat exchange between the human body and its environment. A few of thermal indices have been developed to assess thermal comfort in the building environment. These indices can be divided into two main categories: temperature indices (such as ET, ET*, SET, operative temperature) and sensation indices (PMV-PPD). The PMV-PPD, as the most well-known and widely used index, was established based on the Fanger’s thermal comfort equation. The PMV-PPD model has been a path breaking contribution to the theory of thermal comfort and to the evaluation of indoor thermal environments in buildings.
