Study Notes
Local Discomfort
- High vertical air temperature difference, floor temperature, draught, and high radiant temperature asymmetry are types of local discomfort.
Additional Requirement 1: Vertical Air Temperature Difference
- The vertical air temperature difference between head and ankles should be:
- 3°C for category B
- 2.1°C for category A
- Categories and corresponding PPD% and PD (vertical Dt) are:
- A: < 6% and < 3%
- B: < 10% and < 5%
- C: < 15% and < 10%
Additional Requirement 2: Floor Temperature
- The floor temperature should be between 19°C and 26°C.
- Specific temperatures are:
- 20°C in winter
- 26°C in summer
- Categories and corresponding PPD% and PD (floor temp.) are:
- A: < 6% and < 10%
- B: < 10% and < 10%
- C: < 15% and < 15%
Additional Requirement 3: Draught Rate
- The Draught Rate depends on:
- Air temperature
- Mean air velocity
- Turbulence intensity
- Categories and corresponding PPD% and PD (DR) are:
- A: < 6% and < 15%
- B: < 10% and < 20%
- C: < 15% and < 25%
