Summary

In this paper, the importance of human productivity to air-conditioning control in office environments is discussed. A case study was conducted to compare the performance of two control methods, conventional setpoint control and predicted-mean-vote-based (PMV-based) control, in an office environment. The comparison was based on three factors: human comfort, energy consumption, and human productivity. The simulation results led to comparison of human comfort and energy consumption.
