Abstract

The most typical method to control comfort control in a room utilizes the Fanger PMV thermal comfort model. However, indoor air quality is also an element that affects the comfort level of occupants, rendering the PMV control, which only considers the thermal environment, insufficient in completely ensuring the comfort of occupants. Hence, in an initial step to develop a comfort index that integrates indoor air quality and the thermal environment, this study compared the Dv (bias between PMV and TSV) for varying carbon dioxide concentration in a university library reading room to analyze the impact of carbon dioxide concentration on TSV. The results showed that the higher the concentration of carbon dioxide, the lower the Dv. This indicates that the concentration of carbon dioxide affects TSV, implying a need to consider carbon dioxide levels to evaluate the thermal comfort levels.
