Thermal comfort (thermally neutral) conditions for three levels of activity

McNall, Jr., P.E. / Jaax, J. / Rohles, F.H. / Nevins, R.G. / Springer, W.

Study to determine thermally neutral temperature and zone for men and women with activity levels resulting in metabolic rates of approximately 600, 800, and 1000 Btuh for average male subject; results of study indicated that for metabolic rates tested thermally neutral temperatures were 72, 66 and 60 F, respectively; experimental program was carried out in KSU-ASHRAE environmental test chamber at Kansas State University; test subjects were 210 males and 210 females, with average age of 20 and 19 years.
