ShareA large-scale survey of thermal comfort in office premises in Hong Kong.
Author(s) : CHAN D. W. T., BURNETT J., DEAR R. J. de, NG S. C. H.
Summary
The high energy consumption for space cooling and the demand for improved indoor thermal comfort conditions stimulated a large-scale survey of thermal comfort conditions in Hong Kong office premises. The neutral temperatures and preferred temperatures are found to be lower than those found in other studies in the tropics, with 60% of the surveyed subjects preferring a change of the thermal conditions in summer.
