Estimation of Thermal Comfort by Measuring Clo Value without Contact

چکیده
In order to create more comfortable and energy saving living spaces, we have to investigate what is comfortable and how to measure comfort of users in a living space. Some measures of thermal comfort have been defined as Predicted Mean Vote (PMV) and Predicted Percentage Dissatisfied (PPD) as an international standard. However, complex and high cost equipments are required to measure PMV by conventional methods. In this paper, we propose a method for PMV estimation more easily and cheaper than conventional methods by using a camera. PMV is calculated from temperature, humidity, air velocity and clo value estimated by sensors and clothes database.

Influence of Three Dynamic Predictive Clothing Insulation Models on Building Energy Use, HVAC Sizing and Thermal Comfort
In building energy simulation, indoor thermal comfort condition, energy use and equipment size are typically calculated based on the assumption that the clothing insulation is equal to a constant value of 0.5 clo during the cooling season and 1.0 clo during the heating season. The assumption is not reflected in practice and thus it may lead to errors. In reality, occupants frequently adjust the...
متن کاملWeather, clothing and thermal adaptation to indoor climate
The adaptive thermal comfort model links indoor comfort temperatures to prevailing weather outdoors, shifting them higher in warm weather and lower in cool weather. Adaptive comfort engineering standards hold the potential to conserve energy, but for them to work effectively it is essential that building occupants are free to adapt themselves, primarily through clothing adjustment, to the varia...
