The indoor environment of high-speed railway stations is more complex than in traditional railway stations. This could lead to complex indoor environment problems. In this study, indoor environmental measurements and passenger satisfaction surveys were conducted in two high-speed railway stations in summer and winter, considering the indoor thermal, natural light, acoustic and air environment. The results indicate that the air temperatures in winter were far below comfort standards. The mean illuminance met the standard requirements in both stations. However, the illuminance uniformity was very low in the summer. The acoustic and air environments were satisfactory and have positive impacts on the overall environmental comfort of passengers. The evaluated acoustic environment indicated this has a worst effect on passengers’ comfort. The depth of the waiting halls affected the air environment. The subjective survey revealed the following: Females were more sensitive to the indoor environment than males in winter. Northerners were more satisfied with the environment than Southerners. Older passengers were slightly more tolerant to the environment. Passengers with a longer waiting time would have higher demands for a better indoor environment. Also, passengers were more tolerant in summer than in winter.
In this study, virtual reality technology was used to simulate the virtual scene of three common light environment forms of professional classrooms in universities. The experimental results show that people’s environmental perception is related to the average pupil diameter, saccade frequency, high frequency/low frequency (LF/HF) and skin conductance change rate in a combined light environment; moreover, when the colour temperature is 4500 K, the space is brighter, more spacious, more relaxed and the willingness to learn is stronger. In the range of 22.4°C–25°C, temperature does not affect people’s perception of the warm feeling of the light environment, while the light colour temperature has a greater impact on people’s perception of the warm feeling. The lower the light colour temperature is, the warmer people feel subjectively. However, people’s eye movement behaviour and physiological system data have no obvious perception of colour temperature changes. Indoor noise affects the indoor brightness perception to some extent. In the range of 43–46.9 dB, with the increase of noise value, the evaluation score of people’s brightness perception basically increases. In terms of learning psychological state, the more comfortable the light environment is, the stronger the willingness to learn and the higher the learning enthusiasm.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
