Open publisher page 2 citations

Abstract

The relationship between the thermal comfort and the load of the HVAC is discussed. Through experiments, the most important factors affecting thermal comfort, temperature and relative humidity are studied. The result shows that in the range of thermal comfort and the investigated students, relative humidity has little effects on thermal comfort, but affects the load of HVAC system greatly.The energysaving and thermal comfort of HVAC can reach an unification under some conditions.
