The thermal comfort of elderly people in warm indoor environments is important because their higher risk heat stress. use local cooling devices may help alleviate In this study, 26 participants were recruited for climate chamber experiments neutral (26 °C, 40 % relative humidity (RH)), slightly (29 RH; 28 60 RH), and (33 32 50 RH) environments. Three tested: a table fan, evaporative device, air-cooled jacket. This study found, different environments, the by results an mean skin temperature decrease no more than 0.5 °C. sensation head torso has most significant impact on overall sensation. (MST) remains effective physiological indicator estimating after using devices. head, limbs, extremities plays substantial role predicting thermosensory (TMST) proposed based these parts can accurately predict MST. provides reference development future implications guiding selection nursing homes or residential elderly, it be utilized to formulate recommendations improving device design.

Off-the-shelf wearable sensing devices for personalized thermal comfort models: A systematic review on their use in scientific research

Journal of Building Engineering, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 70, С. 106379 - 106379

Human thermal comfort depends on objective variables -related to the environment- and subjective variables, related physiological conditions. While former are relatively easy be measured, latter difficult investigated since differ from person they characterized by sudden variations over time. The recent spread of off-the-shelf wearable devices for monitoring bio-signals has considerably facilitate this challenging task. aim work is provide a detailed framework about use investigations. A systematic review 35 scientific papers -selected 302 results initial database query- was performed. highlight that wristbands (mainly, Empatica E4 Fitbit), headbands (i.e., Muse 2), chest bands BioHarness 3.0 Polar H7), miniature data loggers iButton), activity sensors Move 3) were whose predominant in Those adopted different purposes, namely finding correlations between signals sensations, training and/or validating models, improving acquisition, controlling HVAC systems. proposed could represent solid background future investigations which should focus two main research streams. first one at strengthening knowledge statistical sensations signals, as well defining standardized procedures model development validation. second stream integrating personalized models into control
