Original abstract
The following article deals with human thermal comfort dilemma. Firstly, the sensor for operative temperature evaluation and than synthetic skin type sensor will be introduced. There is no compact sensor on the market, which can measure operative temperature, so the effort is to develop this kind of sensor. It is necessary to measure more physical quantities, like air temperature, mean radiant temperature, air flow velocity and relative air velocity, to calculate operative temperature. Human thermal comfort does not depend only on environment conditions but also on personal factors, which are different for every human being. It's especially energy expenditure and human clothes thermal resistance.
Czech abstract
Článek se zabývá problematikou tepelné pohody. Bude představen snímač pro hodnocení operativní teploty a snímač typu umělá kůže. Na trhu v současné době chybí kompaktní snímač, který by měřil operativní teplotu. Snahou je tedy takový snímač vyvinout. Pro výpočet operativní teploty je nutné měřit více fyzikálních veličin. Jedná se o teplotu vzduchu, střední radiační teplotu, rychlost proudění vzduchu a relativní rychlost vzduchu. Tepelná pohoda člověka nezávisí pouze na podmínkách prostředí, ale také na faktorech osobních, které jsou u každého člověka jiné. Jedná se o energetický výdej a tepelný odpor oděvu člověka.
