[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: Mean Radiant Temperature

Oscar, 

The Zone average radiant temperature and the Surface Weighted MRT will be the same if the temperatures of all the six surfaces are the same. This is based on the definitions given in Engineering Reference

When I used the Surface weighted (people mean radiant temperature) in order to calculate the relation between surface temperature and people I have the same result. The Mean Radiant Temperature it's the same all the time (Zone average and surface weigted).
