Product details

The book "The Dynamics and Mechanism of Human Thermal Adaptation in Building Environment" offers a comprehensive analysis of human adaptive thermal comfort in buildings. It highlights the balance between reducing energy consumption through air conditioning and enhancing the thermal comfort of users. By applying a newly developed adaptive heat balance model, the mechanisms of human thermal adaptation are examined. The results are based on a variety of methods, including online surveys, studies in real buildings, experiments in climate chambers, and theoretical models. The book addresses three central themes: the dynamics of human thermal adaptation, the fundamental rules and effects of physiological acclimatization as well as psychological adaptation, and presents a new model that describes behavioral adjustments, physiological acclimatization, psychological adaptation, and physical improvements. It serves as a valuable reference for professionals dealing with future assessment standards for the thermal environment in buildings.
