Type of article: Article

Summary

ADIABATIC COOLING IN WORK-ROOMS AND OFFICES INVOLVES AN INCREASE IN AIR HUMIDITY RESULTING IN A HEAVIER HEAT LOAD WITH AIR TEMPERATURE RISING TO VALUES BEYOND THE UPPER COMFORT ZONE LIMIT. THIS ADDITIONAL LOAD SHALL BE COMPENSATED FOR BY LOWERING AIR TEMPERATURE. THE DRAFT OF AN OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH GUIDELINE TO THE APPLICATION OF ADIABATIC HUMIDIFICATION, BASED ON QUANTITATIVE COMPARISON DATA ON THERMOPHYSIOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF AIR TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY TAKEN FROM LITERATURE AND DERIVED FROM THE AA'S OWN EXPERIMENTS, IS INTRODUCED IN THIS ARTICLE.
