Abstract
The thermal comfort is an abstract term. Mathematical representation of thermal
comfort is very complex as different individual have different preference and
stimulation to thermal conditions. The basic factors that define thermal comfort are air
temperature, radiant temperature, air velocity, humidity, clothing insulation level and
metabolic rate. These factors can be controlled accordingly to achieve the best
thermal condition for maximum occupant. The previous studies have been focused on
the finding the analytical solution to the thermal comfort problem. Some simulation
studies have been performed on the space ventilation, but this research takes an
integrated approach to studying ventilation performance with computational fluid
dynamics tools along with the study from analytical/empirical method .This research
gives an insight to identifying some of the input parameters such as temperature and
velocity for the inlets air in a conditioned space and the arrangement of inlets and/or
outlets that helps in positioning and sizing of boundary surfaces for related fluid
domain
