Abstract

: In the current study, the passive strategies in traditional houses of Shiraz were investigated and correlation between PMV/PPD model and environmental parameters have been evaluated topredict thermal comfort in traditional houses. In this study, firstly a traditional house as a case study was selected and the thermal comfort conditions of the talar room were analyzed with the PMV/PPD model by DesignBuilder software. Results revealed that PMV of talar room in May, June, September, and October were in the range of -1 and 1 which shows thermal comfort condition has been convenient. Additionally, PMV possessed the highest correlation coefficients with Ta (r = 0.84), Tr (r = 0.84), Top (r = 0.84), Tout (r = 0.82) and lowest correlation coefficients with RH (r = 0.69). It has been discovered that PMV is more similar to PPD (r = 0.95).
