RE: [EnergyPlus_Support] Effective temperature

Hello

Brent
Thx for yr reply

your suggestion is so helpful and according to me, I need to calculate individual terms like air temperature, mean radiant temperature, and relative humidity because effective temperature is the combined effect of all three.

Actually we want to extend the Predicted Mean vote limit for Indian scenario.

can you explain the calculation method of Pierce PMVET this is calculated for effective temp.

thx in advance ....

In the People input object, choose â??Pierceâ?? for thermal comfort model type. Then look at the output for variable called â??PiercePMVET.â??

If the comfort model you need to use is different than the Pierce Two Node (and Fanger or KSU), then you would have to report out all the various independent terms and do the calculation yourself in a post-processing step.

Dear

Dr. Linda

I went through the Documentation but did not any thing about effective temperature

I need effective to calculate the PMV value for adaptive thermal comfort conditions.

so plz help me to calculate effective temperature. ....

Search in the documentation for "effective temperature" (the entire set is searchable) and see if that gives you what you want.

Dear E+

user!!!

How effective temperature is calculated

Can we find effective temperature in energy plus, I have searched but did not get it in output variables.

as I know ET is a integrated effect of air temp., Mean radiant temp. and partial pressure of water vapor. (Ta + MRT + Pa)

Thanks in advance.
