Waseda University released a statement to say that it has reached a collaborative research agreement with Mitsubishi Electric Corporation, the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) and the University of Sydney to create a new “thermal comfort index” which will better predict how people feel indoors.<\/p>
The project is more than just traditional indoor climate control methods. The aim is to go beyond the long-established PMV standard and develop an index capable of capturing varied individual thermal feelings — hot or cold — instead of depending on an average. The four institutions will cooperate through merging skills in environmental control systems, building science, sensor information, human behavioural science and control technology.<\/p>
Mitsubishi Electric will be responsible for demonstration planning and offering test environments, such as the Zero Energy Building (ZEB)-related technology demonstration building “SUSTIE®”. Waseda University’s group, led by Professor Shinichi Tanabe (Faculty of Science & Engineering), will prepare subject questionnaires and demonstration plans. DTU and the University of Sydney bring their world-leading architectural environmental analysis capabilities.<\/p>

The aim is to go beyond the long-established PMV standard and develop an index capable of capturing varied individual thermal feelings — hot or cold — instead of depending on an average. The four institutions will cooperate through merging skills in environmental control systems, building science, sensor information, human behavioural science and control technology.Mitsubishi Electric […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":23141,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_bbp_topic_count":0,"_bbp_reply_count":0,"_bbp_total_topic_count":0,"_bbp_total_reply_count":0,"_bbp_voice_count":0,"_bbp_anonymous_reply_count":0,"_bbp_topic_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_reply_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_forum_subforum_count":0,"wprm-recipe-roundup-name":"","wprm-recipe-roundup-description":"","postBodyCss":"","postBodyMargin":[],"postBodyPadding":[],"postBodyBackground":{"backgroundType":"classic","gradient":""},"footnotes":""},"categories":[91,8098,200],"tags":[111,8844,8846,8845,6388],"ppma_author":[572],"class_list":["post-23116","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-hr-tech","category-news-articles","category-workforce-management","tag-mitsubishi-electric","tag-thermal-environment","tag-university-of-denmark","tag-university-of-sydney","tag-waseda-university"],"yoast_head":"\n\u540c\u696d\u4ed6\u793e\u3078\u306e\u5f71\u97ff<\/strong><\/h4>
