Field measurements of operative temperatures in buildings heated or cooled by embedded water-based radiant systems.

Author(s) : CARLI M. de, OLESEN B. W.

Summary

Field measurements of thermal comfort conditions were made in several buildings with radiant surface systems: floor, wall, and systems with pipes embedded in the concrete slabs between each floor in a multi-storey building. Long-term measurements of operative, air, surface, system, and external temperatures have been carried out. The paper presents the results of the measured operative temperatures. Analysis of the data shows that, for the major part of the time of occupancy, the operative temperature is inside the comfort range.
