Abstract
The difference in thermal conditions between convective and radiant systems is not significant. Contrary to common awareness air temperature and operative temperature are almost similar in room occupied zone with radiant ceiling and chilled beam systems. Experiments with human subjects indicate similar performance of systems with respect to the whole body thermal sensation and acceptability of thermal conditions.
