In the indoor swimming pools, due to presence of people with different individual characteristics, it is important to design an air conditioning system which can provide thermal comfort conditions for the occupants. Since the differences in the persons’ individual parameters such as gender and body composition, it is required to study the effect of...

Personal factors such as weight, height, gender, age, and basal metabolic rate (BMR) all have significant effects on body temperature distribution and thermal sensation. A large number of well-known human body thermoregulatory models are population-based however, and cannot evaluate the impact of individual characteristics on human thermal response...

Individual differences, such as weight, height, gender, age, and Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR), between human subjects can significantly affect body thermoregulatory mechanisms. Therefore, application of common population-based thermal comfort models cannot provide accurate results for an individual's thermal sensation. Based on the standard thermal m...

Abstract Thermal sensation evaluation of occupants in a dense occupancy space, can be an effective step for designing ventilation systems of these environments. In a dense occupancy environment, because of the presence of a large population and also differences in personal parameters such as age, gender, clothing, weight, and body mass index, provi...

Differences in the persons’ individual parameters such as age, gender, weight, height and basal metabolic rate have a significant effect on the human body thermoregulation. Therefore, using the human thermal models that were developed on the basis of large human population does not lead to accurate results for specific individuals. Because the indi...

Radiant cooling and heating systems are becoming more common due to their low energy consumption and high thermal comfort level, therefore observing and analysis of performance of such systems are very important. This paper aimed to analyze the effect of thermal inertia of a typical residential building on performance of radiant heating-cooling pan...

In this paper, fifteen different glazing systems ranging from 3 mm single glazed clear glass to triple glazed with low-e have been analyzed in terms of their human comfort impact and energy saving. This work is helpful in selecting the best window for a given building and given climate. Thermal comfort is measured in term of PMV (predicted mean vot...

Providing thermal comfort conditions in sleeping environment can significantly affect the occupants' health. So, the parameters of the air conditioning system must be properly set to satisfy thermal comfort criteria for persons with different physiological characteristics. In the present study, a task/ambient air conditioning system is modeled and...
