Radiative environments and thermal comfort in temperate climate
2014 The concept of dwelling is connected with the thermal comfort problem. Radiatively out of balance volumes may agree physiologically and psychologically with the ideal preferred comfort. Nevertheless taking into account vertical and horizontal gradients is a necessity, as well as other parameters of influence like air temperature, air velocity, hygrometry, activity and clothing. The mean ra...
متن کاملTourism climate and thermal comfort in Sun Moon Lake, Taiwan.
Bioclimate conditions at Sun Moon Lake, one of Taiwan's most popular tourist destinations, are presented. Existing tourism-related climate is typically based on mean monthly conditions of air temperature and precipitation and excludes the thermal perception of tourists. This study presents a relatively more detailed analysis of tourism climate by using a modified thermal comfort range for both ...
متن کاملHow does climate influence speciation?
Variation in climatic conditions over space and time is thought to be an important driver of speciation. However, the role of climate has not been explored in the theoretical literature on speciation, and the theory underlying empirical studies of climate and speciation has come largely from informal, verbal models. In this study, we develop a quantitative model to test a relatively new but the...
متن کاملThermal comfort assessment in comfort-prone workplaces.
This paper's main issue is a strong advocacy in favour of an a priori classification of thermal environments that can be really functional to comfort assessment: Class 1, environments where comfort conditions can be established (comfort-prone environments), and Class 2, environments where this is not practically feasible. The former, which are also identified here as 'thermally unconstrained' e...
