Occupants' Perception Towards Thermal Sensation In Engineering Laboratory
Thermal comfort can be defined as a state of mind that expresses satisfaction toward the surrounding thermal environment. European Standard ISO 7730 stated that thermal comfort is a combination of four environmental parameters such as air temperature, relative humidity, air velocity and mean radiant...

Thermal comfort can be defined as a state of mind that expresses satisfaction toward the surrounding thermal environment.

This study aims on measurement of thermal comfort at faculty mechanical engineering laboratory. There are two different laboratories that will be conducted in this experiment one with air conditioning (with and without occupants) whereas with no air-conditioning (with and without occupants). The procedure to determine occupant's responses toward thermal comfort in student laboratory is through observation method associated with a survey. Measurement of actual thermal comfort in student laboratory is accomplished through technical measurement associated with a thermal microclimate HD32. l.
