Abstract:
To reduce heating load of bedroom while ensure sleep thermal comfort, this study examined two temperature control modes of bedroom heating, including a stable temperature control throughout the night and a downward change during sleep. The former mode adopted two steady indoor temperature of 14 and 18℃ respectively, and the latter conducted a control pattern of 18-14-18℃. In each condition, before falling asleep and after waking up, the thermal sensation votes and thermal acceptability were collected from twelve lying subjects on whole body as well as on seven major body segments. The preliminary results indicated that subjects felt both conditions of 18℃ and 18-14-18℃ were thermally acceptable and the overall and local thermal sensation were nearly neutral. In the stable condition of 14℃, the subjects reported significantly cooler thermal sensation and thermal unacceptance, especially in the head and foot. © 2024 18th Conference of the International Society of Indoor Air Quality and Climate, INDOOR AIR 2024 - Conference Program and Proceedings.
