This book focuses on human adaptive thermal comfort in the building
environment and the balance between reducing building air
conditioning energy and improving occupants' thermal comfort. It
examines the mechanism of human thermal adaptation using a newly
developed adaptive heat balance model, and presents pioneering
findings based on an on online survey, real building investigation,
climate chamber experiments, and theoretical models. The book
investigates three critical issues related to human thermal
adaptation: (i) the dynamics of human thermal adaptation in the
building environment; (ii) the basic rules and effects of human
physiological acclimatization and psychological adaptation; and
(iii) a new, adaptive, heat balance model describing behavioral
adjustment, physiological acclimatization, psychological
adaptation, and physical improvement effects. Providing the basis
for establishing a more reasonable adaptive thermal comfort model,
the book is a valuable reference resource for anyone interested in
future building thermal environment evaluation criteria.
