Thermal Comfort Temperature Evaluation in Hospital Wards for Patient Safety and Climate Change Sustainability

Abstract

The quality of Iraq's direct heat recovery system is affected by the country's construction design, particularly in light of the warming climate Reference Minimum 26.6 C Reference Average Air Temperature38.6 C,. There is growing concern that the local building patterns need to be addressed openly because the lack of electricity makes the mechanical cooling of buildings difficult in Iraqi cities. This methodology demonstrates the capability to generate precise forecasts of forthcoming air temperatures by using variables as little as 5 percent. This paper presents a standardized methodology for evaluating thermal comfort in the field. The study analyzes the hybrid ventilation systems utilized by Kadhimiya Teaching Hospital round-the-clock to maintain the constant air quality in the wards. Installing climate control is crucial in these locations to maintain thermal comfort as a potentially powerful but costly response to climate change. Adding fans to military fortifications in Iraq appears to be a cost-effective and simple method to improve their resistance to the extreme heat that is anticipated to become more common due to global warming. However, in evaluating the thermal comfort of buildings in Iraq's current and future climates, the established method is significantly more useful.
