Simulation of thermal comfort in natural ventilated rooms based on wind velocity compensation
Zhao Yu, Yuan Dongli and Xie Fei
Determining the boundary conditions on the basis of typical outdoor climatic parameters in Hangzhou, simulates outdoor air flow field and indoor ventilation field and temperature field in residential buildings by means of the Fluent software to obtain a thermal comfort evaluation method for indoor natural ventilation. Analyses indoor thermal comfort by the thermal adaptability evaluation model based on wind velocity compensation. Comparing the evaluating result of the method with that of PMV model, the result indicates that the thermal comfort threshold value by the former is less and the forward deviation is larger, and the latter can better reflect the thermal environment in natural ventilated rooms.
