AW: PMV in PREBID



Title: Nachricht
Dear Isabelle,
 
clothing factors are strongly dependent on the working environment and on things like company clothing rules.
However in norms I guess they provide data for various work environments.
 
regards,
 
Matthias

Talking about PMV, which clothing factor do you chose ? How do you select various values for the various season / monthes ?

Thanks already,

Isabelle

Sorry, I do not understand vhere is the problem.
PMV = 0 when comfort is achieved. Small values (-0.3  to +0.3 ) mean a fairly good comfort. Higher values (-1.5 to +1.5) mean a significant degradation of comfort. If your heating/cooling system is good, it seems natural to get a lower PMV when the system is on.

Dear TRNSYS users,
I'm simulating a radiative floor system defining an active layer with the specific function of PREBID. When I choose as output of the type 56 the Predicted Mean Vote I obtain an unespected result: in the heating/cooling seasons PMV is in the range -0,3/0,3, but in the intermediate (when the equipment is OFF) PMV reaches hight values (more than -1,5/1,5).
Anyone can help me to understand this strange behavior?
 
Thanks in advance
