SET based on Adaptive Thermal Heat Balance Framework

Description

Calculation of SET based on Adaptive Thermal Heat Balance framework using Gagge's 2-node model

Usage

calcATHBset(trm, psych, ta, tr, vel, rh, met, wme = 0, pb = 760, 
                      ltime = 60, ht = 171, wt = 69.9)

Arguments

trm

- Running mean outdoor temperature in [degree C]

psych

- factor related to fixed effect on perceived control

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 [%]

met

- a numeric value presenting metabolic rate in [met]

wme

- a numeric value presenting external work in [met]

pb

- a numeric value presenting barometric pressure in [torr] or [mmHg]

ltime

- a numeric value presenting exposure time in [minutes]

ht

- a numeric value presenting body height in [cm]

wt

- a numeric value presenting body weight in [kg]

Details

All variables must have the same length 1. For the calculation of several values use function calcComfInd.

Value

ATHBset set value adapted through the ATHB appoach
