Abstract

The present paper deals with a new approach for evaluating the Thermal Comfort and Index the energy efficiency for perimeter zone in an iso-thermal environment taking into account the thermal sensation distribution. Using a simulation-aided design software, SAPLO and PMVs(Predicted Mean Vote simulated by SAPLO) model, which is derived from Fanger's comfort equations. We evaluated the energy efficiency of the single-glazed and double-glazing windows. The results of analyses indicate that the present approach is effective in assessing the relationship between the thermal comfort and the energy consumption.
