Thermal Comfort and Occupant Satisfaction of a Mosque in a Hot and Humid Climate
Mosques are distinguished from other types of buildings by having an intermittent operation schedule. They are partially or fully occupied five times a day and the maximum occupancy is expected to occur on Friday prayers. As buildings with intermittent occupancy may not perform the same thermally as typical commercial and residential facilities, thermal comfort conditions and perception of occupants have to be investigated. This paper presents the results of a study monitoring indoor environmental conditions of a mosque in order to assess thermal comfort conditions. A historic mosque, which is located in a hot and humid climatic region of Turkey, was selected as a test building and thermal comfort conditions were monitored during two Friday prayers in August and September. Indoor air temperature, relative humidity and air velocity were collected via data loggers. The predicted mean vote (PMV) and predicted percentage of dissatisfied (PPD) indices were calculated and evaluated using the ASHRAE 55-2010 standard. In addition to this, a questionnaire based on Fanger’s seven-point scale was conducted to understand the thermal sensation and preference of occupants. A comparison is provided to highlight the difference between the calculated and perceived satisfaction of occupants.
