Task/ambient conditioning systems: Engineering and application guidelines
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present and discuss engineering and application guidelines and recommendations that encourage the intelligent design, installation, and operation of task/ambient conditioning (TAC) systems in commercial buildings.

Dynamic characteristics and comfort assessment of airflows in indoor environments: A review
TL;DR: In this article, the authors summarize the progress in the literature concerning dynamic characteristics and comfort assessment of airflows in four main sections: demand for indoor airflows, parameters of indoor airflow, comfort assessment, and dynamic airflows and their application.

A direct load control of air-conditioning loads with thermal comfort control
TL;DR: In this paper, a reasonable direct load control program with a least enthalpy estimator (LEE)-based fuzzy thermal comfort controller of air-conditioning systems is proposed in order to alleviate the lack of new generation capacity and the higher fuel generation cost.

Combining measured thermal parameters and simulated wind velocity to predict outdoor thermal comfort
Jianlin Liu,Jianlei Niu,Qian Xia +2 more
TL;DR: In this article, an outdoor thermal comfort prediction method using measured thermal parameters and simulated wind velocities is presented, showing that the building elevation modified the mean flow pattern around a building and the potential impact on pedestrian thermal comfort was assessed using a simplified method by combining the predicted wind velocity and the on-site monitored radiant and air temperatures and air humidity on two summer days.

Levels and indoor-outdoor relationships of size-specific particulate matter in naturally ventilated Portuguese schools.
TL;DR: The results suggest that exposure to PM is high and highlights the need for strategies that provide healthier school environments, whereas the fine fraction of PM2.5 and PM1 is primarily influenced by outdoor concentrations.
