Abstract
The usage of air conditioning system to create a thermally comfortable environment in tropical countries is often a must, not necessarily luxurious any longer. However, the extreme usage of the system will lead towards higher consumption of energy and higher cost. A promising energy efficient model developed based on the Predictive Mean Vote (PMV) is analyzed and evaluated here to distinguish its workability. This model only requires the user to enter their respective PMV value (from -1 to +1) and the respective parameters will be inserted into the air conditioning system, which is based on the standard thermal comfort ISO 7730. Analyses and evaluations were done based on the measurements from human subjects and their feelings towards the surroundings were recorded to see the performance of the model. From here, more than 91% of the subjects agree with the parameters used in defining their thermal comfort. This proves the workability of the model towards controlling the air conditioning system in creating a thermal comfort ambience at lower energy consumption, and further simulative investigations are appreciated before implementation.
