Abstract

An investigation was carried out in naturally ventilated buildings in Zunyi, China, which was located in HSCW climate zone, covering the period of wintertime, from November, 2018 to January, 2019 and yielded 1177 datasets in total. Base on the gathered data, the adaptive thermal comfort model using Griffith’s method taking into account running mean outdoor temperature was developed. 55.9% of data points representing proposed comfort temperatures were not within comfort zones specified in ASHRAE 55 standard and CEN 15251. The proposed adaptive comfort model provides guides on building simulation with more accuracy and indoor thermal environment optimization in this area.
