Summary

Asymmetrical radiation is one of the main problems of thermal comfort in prefabricated houses in Central European countries. It is due to the fact that the radiant heat loss between the human body and the relatively poorly insulated outer walls increases. The various methods for calculating radiant heat loss and heat gain are well known. However, only the method based on the thermal equilibrium of the human body provides us with precise results. The extent of asymmetrical radiation and the possible improvements can be determined by the methods of calculation and the dimensioning diagrams based on therm.
