New publication relates CO2 levels with indoor temperature comfort
from UBC Mechanical Engineering
(2022/7/26 5:58)
|
Could how comfortable building occupants find their indoor temperature be predicted by including measurements of carbon dioxide levels in the room? Yes, according to a new paper from UBC?s Building Decisions Research Group. Moreover, researchers found that the more carbon dioxide is present, the less comfortable people are with the temperature. Before the pandemic, Mechanical […]
