Thermal comfort in the hot humid tropics of Australia.
Day and night comfort votes were recorded from Caucasian residents at Weipa, a mission station in the hot humid tropics of North Queensland, Australia. The limit of day comfort for more than 50% of the men was 81 5°F. (27-5°C.) "normal" corrected effective temperature; the night limit was 78'00F. (25 5°C.). Day comfort limits correlated well with air conditions at which sweat was apparent: nigh...
متن کاملOutdoor thermal comfort and urban design in warm-humid Guayaquil, Ecuador
Deteriorated urban microclimate and poor outdoor thermal comfort is an increasing problem in cities in the tropics due to the combined effect of urban and global warming. Microclimate measurements (wind speed, air temperature and humidity, and globe temperature) were carried out in different parts of the warm-humid city Guayaquil, Ecuador. Simultaneously about 400 persons were asked for their s...
متن کاملEffect of climate change on outdoor thermal comfort in humid climates
BACKGROUND Galicia, in northwest Spain, experiences warm summers and winters. However, the higher relative humidity that prevails the whole year through and the location of the summer hot points are related to real weather heat stroke in the hottest season. However, Planet Global Heating was recently analyzed for the climate in Galicia. Climate change was found to be able to trigger effects tha...
متن کاملOutdoor thermal comfort in public space in warm-humid Guayaquil, Ecuador
The thermal environment outdoors affects human comfort and health. Mental and physical performance is reduced at high levels of air temperature being a problem especially in tropical climates. This paper deals with human comfort in the warm-humid city of Guayaquil, Ecuador. The main aim was to examine the influence of urban micrometeorological conditions on people's subjective thermal perceptio...
متن کاملBuilding Design for Hot and Humid Climates – Implications on Thermal Comfort and Energy Efficiency
The paper discusses the concept of an adaptive thermal comfort design methodology and its impact on the selection, design and performance of climate control systems for large public spaces with transient occupancy in hot and humid climates. It outlines the design methodology which is based on providing localised comfort conditions to zones within a building based on its occupancy patterns, acti...
