ABSTRAK Mall saat ini marak menggunakan clerestory sebagai salah satu upaya untuk penerangan alami pada siang hari. Namun, cahaya matahari pada sore hari (barat) akan menghasilkan cahaya matahari yang lebih panas dan silau dibandingkan cahaya matahari pada pagi hari (timur). Oleh karena itu, dengan pemakaian clerestory yang cukup besar pada bangunan, masalah panas tentu tak dapat dihindari. Begitu pula dengan glare yang berasal dari pantulan sinar matahari. Salah satu Mall yang menggunakan clerestory adalah Mall AEON BSD. Pengukuran suhu udara, temperatur efektif, kelembaban udara, kecepatan angin, PMV (Predicted Mean Vote) dan PPD (Predicted Percentage of Dissatisfied) dilaksanakan pada 4 waktu dengan 5 lokasi titik ukur yang memiliki kondisi berbeda untuk membuktikan bahwa clerestory dapat mempengaruhi kenyamanan termal. Disimpulkan bahwa titik 2 yaitu titik yang berdekatan dengan clerestory sisi kanan (ukurannya lebih kecil daripada clerestory sisi kiri) memiliki temperatur efektif dan kelembaban udara yang lebih rendah dari titik lain, dan kecepatan udara (dipengaruhi oleh hembusan AC) lebih tinggi dari titik lain. Responden merasa nyaman saat berada di titik tersebut.Titik paling nyaman menurut responden adalah titik 2 dengan TE rata-rata berkisar 27,4˚C, kelembaban udara rata-rata berkisar 52,2%, kecepatan udara rata-rata berkisar 0,15 m/s, PMV berkisar 0,5 dan PPD berkisar 12,7%. Dengan begitu semakin kecil ukuran skylight terbukti mempengaruhi kenyamanan termal dan membuat kenyamanan termal dapat tercapai. Kata Kunci: Mall, Clerestory, PMV, PPD, Kenyamanan Termal ABSTRACT Nowadays mall is decorated with clerestory as an effort to lighten naturally during the day. However, sunlight in the afternoon (west) will produce more sunlight and glare than sunlight in the morning (east). Therefore, with the use of a fairly large clerestory in buildings, the problem of heat certainly can not be avoided. Similarly, glare that comes from the reflection of sunlight. One of the malls that use clerestory is BSD AEON Mall. Measurement of air temperature, effective temperature, air humidity, wind speed, PMV (Predicted Mean Vote) and PPD (Predicted Percentage of Dissatisfied) carried out at 4 times within 5 measuring spots that have different conditions, proving that clerestory can affect thermal comfort. It was concluded that point 2, which is the point adjacent to the right side clerestory (smaller in size than the left side clerestory) has an effective temperature and lower air humidity than other points, and air velocity (affected by blowing AC) is higher than other points. Respondents felt comfortable when they were at that point. The most comfortable point according to respondents was point 2 with TE averaging around 27.4˚C, air humidity averaged 52.2%, the average air speed ranged from 0.15 m / s, PMV ranges from 0.5 and PPD ranges from 12.7%. Thus, the smaller size of the clerestory is affecting thermal comfort and thermal comfort can be achieved. Keywords: Mall, Clerestory, PMV, PPD, Thermal Comfort

Abstract Thermal comfort conditions may vary substantially within an air-conditioned room equipped by split-type systems. In this work, the comfort conditions in a classroom were evaluated experimentally based on the PMV index, according to ISO 7730 Standard that defines the thermal satisfaction in occupied environments. The experiment was carried out at three different supply airflows (high, medium and low) and three set-point temperatures (23, 24 and 25°C). The results showed that there is a considerable variation in the air velocity field in the room as well as in the PMV values for three different supply airflows, consequently significant changes of thermal comfort indices can be noticed. Several curves were adjusted aiming to express the values of PMV, deriving a simplified comfort index for rooms conditioned by split-type systems based on dry-bulb air temperature and air speed. The purpose of this adjustment is to obtain an equation that provides the value of the comfort index for cooling purposes. Thus, for a certain condition of use, one can predict what will be the value of PMV in an occupied environment, enabling the implementation of a control system of the comfort according to this new index (ICS). The variables considered in obtaining the curve were the air temperature (Tar) and the air velocity (Var), since these two variables can be controlled directly by the split-type system. The general purpose of this work is to provide experimental data for the development of a low-cost device to automatically control ICS-based thermal comfort in a space conditioned by a split-type system through a single and representative point within the classroom.

Open Office

Modern office building users have high expectations about the working environment and thermal comfort, which requires the installation of complex technical systems such as combined cooling and ventilation. Room conditioning units of these systems must ensure temperature and ventilation control in a way that air velocity is low and the air temperature in acceptable range. Achieving air distribution avoiding draught is one of the key elements of a thermal comfort in modern office landscape. Higher air velocity in occupied zone is easily perceived as draught, which causes occupant dissatisfaction and complaints, as well as decrease in the productivity or effective floor space area. To reduce complaints, room air temperature setpoints or ventilation airflow rates are often modified, which may result in higher heating energy demand. In addition, excessive heating setpoint rise will not only consume more energy, but may cause health problems. Compared to cellular offices it is more difficult to ensure thermal comfort conditions in open office spaces where there are no walls for air flows. In addition, due to the higher number of employees it is more difficult to meet satisfactory conditions for everyone. The aim of this study was to evaluate thermal comfort parameters such as room air temperature, air speed and supply air temperature and how the users sense it in a modern office building in Tallinn, Estonia. Design room air temperature setpoints and air exchange rate were evaluated on open office spaces. Measured data with web-based indoor climate questionnaire was analysed. Results show which design and measured parameters make it possible to match the user comfort at all times.

This paper presents the experimental data that was collected from small pilot solar chimney. The experimental data together with ambient conditions are used to evaluate the performance and study the behavior of the solar chimney; this data will be used for comparison with theoretical models in another paper [part II). The solar chimney prototype was designed and constructed at the Subrata Faculty of Engineering-Libya. The data were collected over several days of June 2011. The solar chimney system contains two main components; the solar collector and the solar chimney. The solar collector root‘ has a circular area of126 m3, the solar chimney is a PVC tube with internal diameter of 0.2 m and the total height of chimney is 9.3 m. The measurements include the intensity of solar radiation inside/outside the collector, temperature and velocity of air at the entrance of the chimney, temperature and speed of wind outside the collector, temperature of the ground inside collector al1d temperature measurements of air at speci?c points at different levels throughout the collector. Solar irradiance was found to affect the chimney temperature and subsequently affects chimney air velocity. The experimental results showed that temperature differences of (30 - 45°C) were recorded between the ambient temperature and that of air inside the chimney in the middle of the day, where the highest air temperature of 73.4°C was recorded at the entrance of the solar chimney. The maximum air velocity of 3.6 m/s was recorded inside the solar chimney at noon on 9 June. Wind speed outside the collector had a small effect on the speed of the air inside the chimney and tends to change slightly, hence, can neglect influence of wind speed on the performance of the system. Also the experimental results indicate that such type of system can trap a suf?cient amount of solar radiation, which elevates the air temperature to a suf?cient value able to generate enough air ?ow to operate a wind turbine to produce electricity; this means the solar chimney system for electricity production can work in the north-western part of Libya in the summer time at least.

Abstract -Thermal comfort is a state of mind that expresses satisfaction with the thermal environment. There are two main categories in the effort to obtain a comfort index; empirical and analytical. Empirical is based on social surveys, while analysis is based on the physics principle of heat flow.Bandung city is one of the historical cities in Indonesia which has many historical heritage buidings. One of them which is commonly known as colonial buildings in Bandung is Lautze 2 Mosque, located at Tamblong Street in the city center of Bandung. This research was conducted to analyze the thermal comfort in the Lautze 2 Mosque Bandung. The analytical method used in this study is a quantitative research method by measuring the main factors namely air temperature, air humidity and air velocity. The main factors become obstacles to get thermal comfort data at the Lautze 2 Mosque Bandung is the location of buildings located in areas with tropical climate conditions with high air temperatures, high air humidity, and low air velocitys.The research conclude that thermal comfort in the Lautze 2 Mosque Bandung building can be categorized as uncomfortable, it can be seen from the measurement results of related factors, namely the temperature and humidity that exceeds the comfort limit and the low air velocity in the building becomes an obstacle to obtain thermal comfort. Keywords: colonial buildings, mosque, thermal comfort, tropical climate.

Thermal calculations for indoor swimming pools require that amount of water evaporated from the pool's water surface, as well as water evaporated from the floor surrounding the pool and from the bodies of the occupants are to be determined. It means in practice that amount of vapor transferred to the air in the pool hall depends most of all on physical parameters of water and air. One of more important factors that affect water evaporation is also the way the pool is operated. The present article shows only chosen relations applied to determine the values of evaporation rate from occupied pool. The relations also account for the mode of pool's operation. The aim of the paper is to analyse the effect of changes of temperature and of relative air humidity in the hall, of water temperature and of air velocity above the water surface, as well as of the number of occupants on moisture gains in the hall. The above data let choose the right relation to be applied in calculations for the water evaporation rate.

SUMMARYThe patient is identified as being of prime importance for comfort standards in hospital ward areas, other ward users being expected to adjust their dress to suit the conditions necessary for patient comfort. A study to identify the optimum steady state conditions for patient comfort is then described.Although this study raises some doubts as to the applicability of the standard thermal comfort assessment techniques to ward areas, it is felt that its results give a good indication of the steady-state conditions preferred by the patients. These were an air temperature of between 21.5° and 22° C and a relative humidity of between 30% and 70%, where the air velocity was less than 0.1 m/s and the mean radiant temperature was close to air temperature.

The Impact

Significant changes in the urban built environment have occurred due to rapid urbanization and increases in the urban population. Such alterations may produce environmental health-related issues such as urban heat stress, air pollution and traffic noise. This research undertook a field study to collect data including urban design parameters, micro-environmental factors and city climatic information. This work was conducted over a two-year period on three pedestrian streets located in high-density urban areas in Beijing. These areas were selected in order to study the influences of urban street canyon texture within a particular geometric layout, wind flow corridors and variations in air temperature on pedestrian microclimatic comfort. The results will facilitate the work of urban planners by providing them with information for use in improving outdoor thermal comfort through their designs. A total of 60[Formula: see text]485 samples were organized into training, validation and test sets. We confirmed our hypothesis that internal wind speed ([Formula: see text] is attributable mainly to the urban texture coefficient ([Formula: see text], air temperature ([Formula: see text] and leading-in wind speed ([Formula: see text]. The model was tested using the test data collected onsite, which demonstrated a very accurate goodness-of-fit; the model achieved an R-squared value of 0.82, which meant that [Formula: see text] as a dependent variable was 82% correlated to the three predictors as independent variables. With this computer simulation, urban planners can now predict and visualize the impact of changes on the built environment in terms of either the direction of solar radiation received or increases in wind speed, in return for the desired thermal comfort level for residents of the neighborhood.

Function Model

The aim of this research is to model and forecast the rainfall in Batu City using multi input transfer function model based on air temperature, humidity, wind speed and cloud. Transfer function model is a multivariate time series model which consists of an output series (Y<sub>t</sub>) sequence expected to be effected by an input series (X<sub>t</sub>) and other inputs in a group called a noise series (N<sub>t</sub>). Multi input transfer function model obtained is (<em>b<sub>1</sub>,s<sub>1</sub>,r<sub>1</sub></em>) (<em>b<sub>2</sub>,s<sub>2</sub>,r<sub>2</sub></em>) (<em>b<sub>3</sub>,s<sub>3</sub>,r<sub>3</sub></em>) (<em>b<sub>4</sub>,s<sub>4</sub>,r<sub>4</sub></em>)(<em>p<sub>n</sub>,q<sub>n</sub></em>) = (0,0,0) (23,0,0) (1,2,0) (0,0,0) ([5,8],2) and shows that air temperature on t-day affects rainfall on t-day, rainfall on t-day is influenced by air humidity in the previous 23 days, rainfall on t-day is affected by wind speed in the previous day , and rainfall on day t is affected by clouds on day t. The results of rainfall forecasting in Batu City with multi input transfer function model can be said to be accurate, because it produces relatively small RMSE value. The value of RMSE data forecasting training is 7.7921 while forecasting data testing is 4.2184. Multi-input transfer function model is suitable for rainfall in Batu City.

Foram obtidas medidas das variáveis meteorológicas temperatura do ar, umidade relativa do ar e velocidade do vento através da estação automática instalada em Arapiraca com a finalidade de monitorar as condições de tempo no município em diferentes períodos (época chuvosa e seca). Sendo utilizado o índice de desconforto (ID), o índice de desconforto de Kawamura (IDK), índice da temperatura efetiva (TE) e o índice de temperatura efetiva em função do vento (TEV). Os valores mais elevados dos índices que foram registrados para o período chuvoso, foram do índice id com aproximadamente 2,5 °C acima dos valores observados da temperatura do ar (em média 26,5 °C), caracterizando crescente desconforto para os indivíduos locais.  Para o período seco não houve registros de grandes variações entre os respectivos índices. E assim como no período chuvoso, os valores mais elevados no período seco foram do índice id, indicando nesse período também forte desconforto. Os valores obtidos estiveram condizentes com a literatura, sendo a sensação térmica mais preponderante durante o inverno. E, de acordo com as variações, em todo período de estudo (05 de maio de 2008 a 05 de maio de 2011) a população foi submetida aos alertas de atenção e muito cuidado, situação esta que pôde provocar fadiga ou cãibras, esgotamento e insolação nos casos de exposição prolongada e atividade física.      A B S T R A C T Measurements of meteorological variables air temperature, relative humidity and wind speed by automatic station installed in Arapiraca in order to monitor the weather conditions in the city in different periods (dry and rainy season) were obtained. Being used the discomfort index (ID), the discomfort index of Kawamura (IDK), index of effective temperature (TE) and the index of effective temperature as a function of wind (TEv). Higher index values ​​that were recorded for the rainy season, the index id were approximately 2.5 ° C above the observed values ​​of air temperature (average 26.5 ° C), indicating increasing discomfort for local individuals . For the dry period there were no reports of large variations between the respective indices. And just as the rainy season, the highest values ​​in the dry season were the index id, indicating that period also strong discomfort. The values ​​obtained were consistent with the literature, the most predominant wind chill during the winter. And, according to the variations in the study period (May 5, 2008 to 05 maio 2011) the population was subjected to warnings of attention and care, a situation that could cause fatigue or cramps, exhaustion and heat stroke in cases of prolonged exposure and physical activity.   Key-Words: Urban climate.
