Adaptive processes explain variations in human thermal sensation
Models for human perception of thermal environments included in so-called thermal comfort standards are either based on principles of thermal heat balance, or on large empirical datasets that include human adaptations to different thermal environments (i.e. so-called adaptive approach). The framework for an adaptive thermal heat balance model (ATHB) combines these 2 approaches, improves the pre...
متن کاملSeasonal variations of physiological characteristics and thermal sensation under identical thermal conditions.
Seasonal variations of human thermal characteristics were inspected in thermal comfort and when constantly indoors. Metabolic rate, tympanic temperature, skin temperature, body fat, body weight and thermal sensation were measured under identical thermal conditions in a chamber over the course of one year. Experiments were carried out for each subject in both summer and winter. Six subjects were...
متن کاملThermal sensation and cell adaptability
Whole person adaptive comfort is discussed with reference to recent findings in molecular scale systems biology. The observations are upscaled to hypotheses relating to less traditional interpretations of thermal processes, which have new implications for indoor climate management and design. Arguments are presented for a revision of current focus, model and paradigm. The issue is seen as a pro...
متن کاملThermal Sensation: Infrarej and Microwaves
• .>*'•The number of studies of how microwaves arouse warmth sensations can be counted on the fingers of one hand. They leave many, many unanswered questions, but the nature of the questions to be asked will in general take shape in the light of the much larger amount of information thati we have about the perception of infrared radiation. So ^he main substance of this paper is to use present k...
متن کاملAnalysis of Paradoxical Phenomenon in Thermal Sensation
“Thermal Referral (TR)” and “Thermal Grill Illusion (TGI)” are known as illusions of thermal sensation, have been well studied. In a previous study, the experiment using two thermal-tactile stimulations to the forearm revealed that those illusions simultaneously occurred. On the other hand, in the experiment result, a few subjects perceived a hot stimulation as a cold sensation or a cold stimul...
