These multiple case studies investigate thermal and environmental architectural details unique to the Japanese-designed educational facilities in Thailand, namely [1] King Mongkut Institute of Technology Ladkrabang 's Auditorium Memorial Hall, [2] Lecture Halls, [3] Kasetsart University's Central Laboratory, [4] Thammasat Japanese Studies, [5] Ministry Natural Resources Environment’s Research C...

Purpose The of this paper is to identify statistical relationships between visual environment and occupant productivity. Visual one the most important indoor environmental quality (IEQ) parameters, it directly impacts productivity in offices. literature outlines significance impact. Still, there a lack investigation, analysis inter-relationships independent variables (IEQ factors), especially h...

This paper conducts an experimental measuring of the airflow generated by a modern ceiling fan that has an electronic device to vary the instant rotation speed for simulating natural winds. The measuring results are then used to calculate the mean air velocity, standard deviations, turbulence intensity, equivalent frequency, power spectrum, and other comfort evaluation parameters. The results h...

Students with autism display sensory sensitivities to environmental stimuli that affect their attending and engagement in classroom learning activities. The purpose of the study was to determine whether attending of 4 male students, ages 13-20, increased after the installation of sound-absorbing walls and halogen lighting. The multiple single-subject, mixed-method design, AB(B+C), included a 2-...

The Air conditioning system satisfies the various space conditions required for the comfort and industrial air conditioning. Now days demand for AC system applications are increasing and include the areas of application like apartment buildings, banks, office buildings, industrial plants, schools, restaurants etc. This growing demand for air conditioning system forced manufactures to develop su...

Indoor air quality (IAQ) and air temperature (T) have powerful effects on the efficiency with which work can be performed in schools and offices. Huge amounts of energy are used to keep these parameters constant at levels which represent a compromise between group average requirements for subjective comfort and energy conservation. Human requirements change with task requirements and from hour ...

physiologically thermal comfort condition is a limit of temperature and humidity. ,in which thermal control mechanism of human body is in its least activity . thermal comfort conditions not only have impact on sizes of heating and cooling equipment ,but also affects the thickness of insulation, and .energy, consumption of buildings. it is necessary to define thermal comfort condition for differ...

Safety, security, and comfort of pedestrian crowds during large gatherings are heavily influenced by the layout of the underlying environment. This work presents a systematic agent-based simulation approach to appraise and optimize the layout of a pedestrian environment in order to maximize safety, security, and comfort. The performance of the approach is demonstrated based on annual “Salone de...
