Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] PMVET* and PMVSET*



The description of EnergyPlus implementation of the Fanger, Pierce 
Two-Node, and KSU thermal comfort model reporting starts on page 785 
(PDF) of the Engineering Reference.  At then end of the descriptions 
of all the models is the list of references (original documents) 
about the models.  If you can't determine your answers from the 
EnergyPlus Engineering Reference, I suggest that you read the 
original documents.

PMV is one of the Fanger model results.
PMVET* and PMVSET* are from the Pierce models.
