Comparing Multiple Overheating Assessment Metrics Using Measured Data
In this study, a comparison is made of overheating in multiple field-monitored buildings using several different overheating indices, including dry-bulb temperature, the heat index (HI), humidex (H), standard effective temperature (SET), wet-bulb globe temperature (WBGT), discomfort index (DI), and summer simmer index (SSI). The field monitoring was conducted in the city of Montreal, Canada over the summer of 2020 at six school buildings and two hospital buildings. In at least two typical rooms of each building, temperature and humidity sensors were installed; a total of 34 rooms were instrumented in these 8 buildings, and the rooms are facing different orientations and are located on different floors. The extent of concordance amongst the different overheating metrics was examined by correlation analysis. The result from this study provides an evaluation of the similarity between the different assessment metrics and helps identify the assessment approach that is the most representative of the methods evaluated.
