Journal ArticleDOI
A method to weight three categories of adaptive thermal comfort
TL;DR: In this paper, a method of quantifying the physiological, behavioural and psychological portions of the adaptation process by using the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) based on the case studies conducted in the UK and China is introduced.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of Relative Humidity on Thermal Comfort in a Warm Environment
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of relative humidity on thermal comfort was studied in an environment chamber and the results indicated that higher humidity could cause a negative effect on the subject's thermal comfort.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transport and Removal of Expiratory Droplets in Hospital Ward Environment
TL;DR: In this paper, a Lagrangian-based particle tracking model with near-wall correction functions for turbulence was employed to simulate the fate of expiratory droplets in a three-bed hospital ward setting.
Journal ArticleDOI
Naturally ventilated and mixed-mode buildings—Part II: Optimal control
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used building thermal predictions from a data-driven thermal model to assess the impact of window and internal openings and fan operation and developed a means of ranking and choosing among a set of cooling strategies, with the objective of maintaining occupied-period temperatures within a specified range and minimizing fan energy use.

Coupled TRNSYS-CFD simulations evaluating the performance of PCM plate heat exchangers in an airport terminal building displacement conditioning system
TL;DR: In this article, an energy performance evaluation of a displacement ventilation (DV) system in an airport departure hall, with a conventional DV diffuser and a diffuser retrofitted with a phase change material storage heat exchanger (PCM-HX), is presented.
