PPD with Ankle Draft
Description
Function to calculate ankle draft using the predicted percentage of dissatisfied.
Usage
calcAD(ta, tr, vel, rh, clo, met, vAnkle)
Arguments
ta |
a numeric value presenting air temperature in [degree C] |
tr |
a numeric value presenting mean radiant temperature in [degree C] |
vel |
a numeric value presenting air velocity in [m/s] |
rh |
a numeric value presenting relative humidity [%] |
clo |
a numeric value presenting clothing insulation level in [clo] |
met |
a numeric value presenting metabolic rate in [met] |
vAnkle |
air speed at the 0.1 m (4 in.) above the floor [m/s] |
Details
Calculates the percentage of thermally dissatisfied people with the ankle draft (0.1 m) above floor level.This equation is only applicable for velocity < 0.2 m/s (40 fps)
Value
Predicted Percentage of Dissatisfied occupants with ankle draft in [%]
Acceptability in [boolean]
