摘要
The results from a BRE survey, conducted in new homes during winter and summer, are presented. The occupants' reported thermal sensation (TS) was obtained using the ASHRAE scale and sufficient physical measurements were made to allow their predicted mean thermal sensation vote (PMV) to be computed. The neutral (comfortable) temperatures based on reported and predicted votes were compared. The neutral temperature calculated from TS was congruent-to 5-degrees-C lower than that calculated from PMV in winter and congruent-to 3-degrees-C lower in summer. The respondents rated themselves warmer in winter than in summer even though room temperatures were lower. The respondents appear to maintain thermal comfort in summer, relatively independently of room temperature, indicating that they may have more control over their environment. The respondents prefer to be slightly warm in winter and be of a neutral thermal sensation in summer.
