Abstract:The paper presents an experimental determination of indoor conditions for human thermal comfort for four different structural positions in Ilorin, Kwara State, Nigeria. The Fanger's model was used to determine the optimum productivity level of occupants of the location under investigation. Experimental results and heat balance equation were coupled to determine the heat loss due to regulatory sweating in the zone. The results show the relationship between structural positions, skin temperature and ambient temp… Show more
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.
