Transition from thermal comfort to thermal pleasure: Explanation of the factors that shape thermal quality perception in the built environment
Different sensory stimuli, such as light, color, smell, sound and texture, play an important role in perceiving the quality of an environment. Heat, like other sensory stimuli, can contribute to the richness of an environment and provide a greater benefit to people. The fact that a person in addition to the thermal comfort of a particular environment can also benefit from its thermal quality, i...
متن کاملNatural selection on thermal performance in a novel thermal environment.
Tropical ectotherms are thought to be especially vulnerable to climate change because they are adapted to relatively stable temperature regimes, such that even small increases in environmental temperature may lead to large decreases in physiological performance. One way in which tropical organisms may mitigate the detrimental effects of warming is through evolutionary change in thermal physiolo...
متن کاملA Water Mass Method and Its Application to Integrated Heat and Electricity Dispatch Considering Thermal Dynamics
Currently, most district heating networks are running in a heat-setting mode, limiting the adjustment of the electrical power of combined heat and power (CHP) units. By considering the electrical power system (EPS) and district heating system (DHS) together, the peak regulatory capability of CHP units can be improved and renewable energy accommodation can be promoted. In this paper, a tractable...
متن کاملThe Universal Thermal Climate Index UTCI compared to ergonomics standards for assessing the thermal environment.
The growing need for valid assessment procedures of the outdoor thermal environment in the fields of public weather services, public health systems, urban planning, tourism & recreation and climate impact research raised the idea to develop the Universal Thermal Climate Index UTCI based on the most recent scientific progress both in thermo-physiology and in heat exchange theory. Following exten...
