Abstract

People's subjective response to any thermal environment is commonly investigated by using rating scales describing the degree of thermal sensation, comfort, and acceptability. Subsequent analyses of results collected in this way rely on the assumption that specific distances between verbal anchors placed on the scale exist and that relationships between verbal anchors from different dimensions that are assessed (e.g. thermal sensation and comfort) do not change. Another inherent assumption is that such scales are independent of the context in which they are used (climate zone, season, etc.). Despite their use worldwide, there is indication that contextual differences influence the way the scales are perceived and therefore question the reliability of the scales’ interpretation. To address this issue, a large international collaborative questionnaire study was conducted in 26 countries, using 21 different languages, which led to a dataset of 8225 questionnaires. Results, analysed by means of robust statistical techniques, revealed that only a subset of the responses are in accordance with the mentioned assumptions. Significant differences appeared between groups of participants in their perception of the scales, both in relation to distances of the anchors and relationships between scales. It was also found that respondents’ interpretations of scales changed with contextual factors, such as climate, season, and language. These findings highlight the need to carefully consider context-dependent factors in interpreting and reporting results from thermal comfort studies or post-occupancy evaluations, as well as to revisit the use of rating scales and the analysis methods used in thermal comfort studies to improve their reliability.

Abstract

Thermal discomfort is one of the main triggers for occupants interactions with components of the built environment such as adjustments of thermostats and/or opening windows and strongly related to the energy use in buildings. Understanding causes for thermal (dis-)comfort is crucial for design and operation of any type of building. The assessment of human thermal perception through rating scales, for example in post-occupancy studies, has been applied for several decades; however, long-existing assumptions related to these rating scales had been questioned by several researchers. The aim of this study was to gain deeper knowledge on contextual influences on the interpretation of thermal perception scales and their verbal anchors by survey participants. A questionnaire was designed and consequently applied in 21 language versions. These surveys were conducted in 57 cities in 30 countries resulting in a dataset containing responses from 8225 participants. The database offers potential for further analysis in the areas of building design and operation, psycho-physical relationships between human perception and the built environment, and linguistic analyses.

Abstract

Recognizing the value of open-source research databases in advancing the art and science of HVAC, in 2014 the ASHRAE Global Thermal Comfort Database II project was launched under the leadership of University of California at Berkeley’s Center for the Built Environment and The University of Sydney’s Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ) Laboratory. The exercise began with a systematic collection and harmonization of raw data from the last two decades of thermal comfort field studies around the world. The ASHRAE Global Thermal Comfort Database II (Comfort Database), now an online, open-source database, includes approximately 81,846 complete sets of objective indoor climatic observations with accompanying “right-here-right-now” subjective evaluations by the building occupants who were exposed to them. The database is intended to support diverse inquiries about thermal comfort in field settings. A simple web-based interface to the database enables filtering on multiple criteria, including building typology, occupancy type, subjects’ demographic variables, subjective thermal comfort states, indoor thermal environmental criteria, calculated comfort indices, environmental control criteria and outdoor meteorological information. Furthermore, a web-based interactive thermal comfort visualization tool has been developed that allows end-users to quickly and interactively explore the data.

Abstract

The classic or deterministic understanding of thermal comfort contends that it is driven exclusively by the physics of the body’s heat exchange with its immediate thermal environment. But in recent decades there has been widespread recognition that a person’s thermal history and adaptation level, including behavioral, physiological and psychological processes operating on various timescales, also influence whether indoor climatic conditions will be deemed comfortable and acceptable, or not, as the case may be. This contextual view of the comfort construct is referred to as the adaptive model, and its empirical basis is an extensive body of field studies conducted in diverse occupancy and building types located across a broad cross-section of the world’s climate zones. The basic research design of the comfort field study consists of paired observations of objective indoor climatic parameters and their subjective evaluation by building occupants using comfort rating scales. The first global adaptive comfort standard, ratified by ASHRAE in 2004, was based on a statistical analysis of approximately 21,000 complete sets of objective indoor climatic observations and their “right-here-right-now” subjective evaluations by the building occupants who were exposed to them. Over a decade has elapsed since ASHRAE Standard 55-2004 was published and since then there has been an escalation in adaptive comfort field research activity around the world. Recently ASHRAE’s thermal comfort technical committee (TC 2.1), in collaboration with the International Energy Agency (Annex 69), have taken on the challenge of systematically collating and harmonizing the raw data collected in recent comfort field studies from around the world into an expanded, quality-assured database. When the project is completed this public-domain resource will underpin myriad inquiries by the thermal comfort community, researchers and practitioners alike. The aim of this presentation is to describe the DB-II project, including the principles guiding the collation and quality assurance of its massive volume of raw input data, and also pointing to some of the new opportunities it will afford the research community over coming years.

Abstract

Recent research suggests that buildings with operable windows in general, and mixed-mode (MM) buildings in particular can provide improved thermal comfort and control opportunities for users. Yet, there have been concerns about outdoor noise sources like traffic or construction noise when windows are opened. Concerns like these may hinder the installation of operable windows in buildings. This paper examines 23,000 office building occupants' perspectives on noise from both sealed and naturally ventilated/MM buildings. Results suggest thatoccupants near operable windows are more satisfied than those near sealed windows or those far from either window type. Among occupants dissatisfied with noise, complaints about indoor noise sources --like people talking-- are about 10 times more prevalent than outdoor noise complaints.

Abstract

This study compared thermal comfort and skin temperature of adolescents and young adults to analyze the difference in their thermal responses. In a climate chamber with increasing air temperature from 18 ℃ to 32 ℃, skin temperature was measured at seven body parts with survey responses. As a result, the indoor environment, thermal comfort, and skin temperature have significant correlations, and there were differences between adolescents and adults in their responses. The neutral temperature of adolescents was slightly lower than that of adults. Generally, adolescents have a higher mean skin temperature than adults, and the hand skin temperature of the adult male group changed much sensitively corresponding to their thermal sensation than others. The difference in thermal comfort and related skin temperature implies the need for investigating adolescents as a separate group from adults for accurate thermal comfort prediction. The results are expected to be used for optimal environmental settings for adolescents.

Abstract

This study investigates the brainwaves associated with thermal discomfort induced by temperature upward ramping. This experiment was conducted on 35 university students. Participants stayed for 40 minutes in a climate chamber where the temperature gradually increased, and at the same time, EEG measurements and thermal comfort answers were performed. As a result of the temperature increasing, the participants felt uncomfortable and the relative power value of all frequency bands gradually increased. As a result of correlation analysis of individual thermal comfort change and relative power change, the alpha power at Cz, C3, the beta power at Fz, Cz, and C4 and the gamma power at C4 increased.

Abstract

Thermal comfort research has been traditionally based on cross-sectional studies and spatial aggregation of individual surveys at building level. This research design is susceptible to compositional effects and may lead to error in identifying predictors to thermal comfort indices, in particular in relation to adaptive mechanisms. A relationship between comfort and different predictors can be true at an individual level but not evident at the building level. In addition, cross-sectional studies overlook temporal changes in individual thermal perception due to contextual factors. To address these limitations, this study applied a longitudinal research design over 8 to 21 months in eight buildings located in six countries around the world. The dataset comprises of 5,567 individual thermal comfort surveys from 258 participants. The analysis aggregated survey responses at participant level and clustered participants according to their thermal sensation votes (TSV). Four TSV clusters were introduced, representing four different thermal sensation traits. Further analysis reviewed the probability of cluster membership in relation to demographic characteristics and behavioural adaptation. Finally, the analysis at individual level enabled the introduction of a new metric, the thermal zone (Zt), which in this study ranges from 21.5°C to 26.6°C. The thermal sensation traits and person-centric thermal zone (Zt) are a first step into the development of new metrics incorporating individual perceived comfort into dynamic building controls for adaptive buildings.

Abstract

People's subjective response to any thermal environment is commonly investigated by using rating scales describing the degree of thermal sensation, comfort, and acceptability. Subsequent analyses of results collected in this way rely on the assumption that specific distances between verbal anchors placed on the scale exist and that relationships between verbal anchors from different dimensions that are assessed (e.g. thermal sensation and comfort) do not change. Another inherent assumption is that such scales are independent of the context in which they are used (climate zone, season, etc.). Despite their use worldwide, there is indication that contextual differences influence the way the scales are perceived and therefore question the reliability of the scales’ interpretation. To address this issue, a large international collaborative questionnaire study was conducted in 26 countries, using 21 different languages, which led to a dataset of 8225 questionnaires. Results, analysed by means of robust statistical techniques, revealed that only a subset of the responses are in accordance with the mentioned assumptions. Significant differences appeared between groups of participants in their perception of the scales, both in relation to distances of the anchors and relationships between scales. It was also found that respondents’ interpretations of scales changed with contextual factors, such as climate, season, and language. These findings highlight the need to carefully consider context-dependent factors in interpreting and reporting results from thermal comfort studies or post-occupancy evaluations, as well as to revisit the use of rating scales and the analysis methods used in thermal comfort studies to improve their reliability.

Abstract

Thermal comfort research has been traditionally based on cross-sectional studies and spatial aggregation of individual surveys at building level. This research design is susceptible to compositional effects and may lead to error in identifying predictors to thermal comfort indices, in particular in relation to adaptive mechanisms. A relationship between comfort and different predictors can be true at an individual level but not evident at the building level. In addition, cross-sectional studies overlook temporal changes in individual thermal perception due to contextual factors. To address these limitations, this study applied a longitudinal research design over 8 to 21 months in eight buildings located in six countries around the world. The dataset comprises of 5,567 individual thermal comfort surveys from 258 participants. The analysis aggregated survey responses at participant level and clustered participants according to their thermal sensation votes (TSV). Four TSV clusters were introduced, representing four different thermal sensation traits. Further analysis reviewed the probability of cluster membership in relation to demographic characteristics and behavioural adaptation. Finally, the analysis at individual level enabled the introduction of a new metric, the thermal zone (Zt), which in this study ranges from 21.5°C to 26.6°C. The thermal sensation traits and person-centric thermal zone (Zt) are a first step into the development of new metrics incorporating individual perceived comfort into dynamic building controls for adaptive buildings.

Abstract

Comfort standards (ASHRAE 55, ISO 7730) specify exact physical criteria for producing acceptable thermal environments, which include temperature, air movement, and humidity limits that are often difficult to comply with, particularly in the subtropical climate of Japan. Changing expectations of comfort are important in evaluating comfort since schools in Japan are not typically air-conditioned. With the rapid growth of school buildings in the US and all over the world, provisions for comfort are critical to student performance and occupant well-being. Are these temperate-climate, air-conditioning based standards applicable in these locations? This paper builds upon previous thermal comfort work that has focused primarily on office environments. For this project we adapt traditional methods of data collection and inquiry for use in the school environment. During the late summer 2000, we conducted surveys in naturally ventilated and air-conditioned schools, polling responses from 74 students, while simultaneously measuring indoor climate variables. Air-conditioned classrooms had conditions within the comfort zone, causing occupants to report 'slightly cool' thermal sensations. The naturally ventilated classrooms were 3[degrees]C warmer than the air-conditioned classrooms and occupants voted that conditions were also within the central three categories (surrounding neutral) of the ASHRAE thermal sensation scale--therefore equated with comfort. These 'neutral' sensations, however, do not correlate to people's preferred thermal state. Comfort responses are discussed in terms of comparisons to ASHRAE Standard 55-92 Thermal Conditions for Human Occupancy.

Abstract

Thermal discomfort is one of the main triggers for occupants’ interactions with components of the built environment such as adjustments of thermostats and/or opening windows and strongly related to the energy use in buildings. Understanding causes for thermal (dis-)comfort is crucial for design and operation of any type of building. The assessment of human thermal perception through rating scales, for example in post-occupancy studies, has been applied for several decades; however, long-existing assumptions related to these rating scales had been questioned by several researchers. The aim of this study was to gain deeper knowledge on contextual influences on the interpretation of thermal perception scales and their verbal anchors by survey participants. A questionnaire was designed and consequently applied in 21 language versions. These surveys were conducted in 57 cities in 30 countries resulting in a dataset containing responses from 8225 participants. The database offers potential for further analysis in the areas of building design and operation, psycho-physical relationships between human perception and the built environment, and linguistic analyses.
