Assessment of thermal environment using a thermal manikin in a field environment chamber served by displacement ventilation system.

A thermal comfort study is presented in this paper, a thermal manikin with a female body and 26 individually heated and controlled body segments is used in a field environment chamber. The aim of that study was to assess thermally non-uniform environment served by DV system using the manikin on the one hand, and to correlate the subjective responses of the sujects with measurements from the manikin.
