Thermal Response of College-age Korean in Summer

Abstract
Thermal response of Korean college students was investigated in a thermal environmental chamber duringsummer season. Eight thermal conditions combined with four air temperatures (24, 26, 28, 30℃) and threerelative humidities (40, 60, 80%) were selected. Subjects of seven females and seven males werequestioned in the chamber for three hours, where thermal and comfort sensations were surveyed everyfifteen minutes. During the period of thermal response experiment, four thermal parameters of airtemperature, relative humidity, air velocity, and globe temperature were monitored in the test chamber. Therepeatability and temporal variation of thermal response were discussed. The thermal sensation vote (TSV)of females is in good agreement with the predicted mean vote (PMV) calculated from the thermalparameters and human parameters. However, the TSV of male shows a slight discrepancy with the PMV. Theneutral points of both female and male are very close to 0.18 of PMV, indicating that college-age Koreanlike to a slight warm environment compared with Western people. The thermal sensation vote of subjects iswell correlated with the comfort sensation vote.
