Description
Summary:This study presents the issue of thermal comfort based on the Fanger model. The research was conducted in 5 rooms in the autumn-winter period. The research consisted of measurement of thermal environment parameters, air temperature and flow rate, relative air humidity, globe temperature sensor and light intensity. During the research, the students filled in questionnaires concerning thermal sensation. This allowed them to express their assessment of thermal comfort (predicted mean vote PMV and predicted percentage of dissatisfied PPD), as well as their preferences concerning the prevailing room conditions. Differences between the actual average predicted rating index and the Fanger model were shown. It can be noted that Fanger’s model does not reflect the results of the respondents.
