Thermal comfort in office buildings: Findings from a field study in mixed-mode and fully-air conditioning environments under humid subtropical conditions
TL;DR: In this article, the authors addressed thermal comfort conditions in office buildings with rudimentary mixed-mode environments controlled by occupants compared to fully air-conditioning in a humid subtropical climate in Brazil.

A review on predicted mean vote and adaptive thermal comfort models
Yat Huang Yau,B.T. Chew +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a literature review of the Fanger's predicted mean vote and adaptive thermal comfort models developed in different buildings and climates and conclude that an internationally recognized adaptive model is needed to achieve better thermal conditions in a variety of buildings such as hospitals, offices, factories, lecture halls, museums, hotels and libraries in the tropics.
