摘要:This paper evaluates the current thermal comfort condition in an air-conditioned design studio using objective measurement and subjective assessment.Objective measurement is mainly to quantify the air temperature,MRT,relative humidity,and air velocity.Subjective assessment is conducted using a questionnaire to determine the occupants thermal comfort sensations and investigate their perception of the thermal comfort level.A design studio in an academic institution in Surabaya was chosen for the study.Results show that more than 80% of the occupants accepted the indoor thermal conditions even though both the environmental and comfort indices exceeded the limit of the standard (ASHRAE Standard 55 and ISO 7730).In addition,non-uniformity of spatial temperature was present in this studio.Some practical recommendations were made to improve the thermal comfort in the design studio.
