Examination from the standpoint of thermophysiological engineering of widely used important indices for evaluating the thermal environment. 1. Originality and characteristics of PMV.

[In Japanese. / En japonais.]

Type of article: Article

Summary

This report deals mainly with PMV's thermal load from the viewpoint of the heat equilibrium between man and his surrounding environment, and with examinations of evaporative equations from the skin surface and of respiratory equation. It also comments on theperceived thermal sensation vote to PMV's thermal load and mean skin temperature. The results indicate the effective limit of PMV, and enable analysis of the qualitative influence of using PMV outside the effective range.
