Abstract

This study analyze indoor thermal comfort properties such as PMV, PPD and fluid variables when the cooling loads are light, occupant and ventilation. There are 6 cases to study for the indoor unit installation conditions and ventilation rates. Numerical method is used to study the indoor environmental properties and experimental study is adapted to analyze reaching time by variable cooling load conditions.
