Thermal comfort study of young Chinese people in Hong Kong
AbstractThe purpose of this study is to investigate the thermal comfort of college-age Chinese subjects and obtain the optimum thermal conditions for buildings. 134 college-age Chinese subjects wearing 0.6 clo standard clothing were exposed under sedentary activity for 3 h to several different thermal conditions. The neutral temperature of young Hong Kong Chinese was found to be 24.9°C. This is not significantly different from previous studies with Danish and American subjects. Using the probit technique for analysing subjective responses of thermal sensation the neutral zone was found to be between 22.2 and 25.2°C.
