20.500.12556/DiRROS-21076 Improved understanding of thermal comfort could yield energy savings in heritage buildings It is necessary to improve the understanding of thermal comfort to reduce energy consumption for heating and cooling in heritage buildings, which are often energy inefficient and where interventions are limited. Personal thermal comfort models based on measurements of environmental conditions and the individual's physiological and subjective responses represent a potential solution to ensure the optimization of existing systems. Past research shows that lighting could impact thermophysiology and subjective perception of thermal conditions, but it is not clear whether the impact is sufficient to make light adaptation an appropriate solution to reduce energy consumption in heritage buildings, where people live and work. The research conducted under realistic semi-controlled conditions in an office environment of an existing building addresses this research gap. The paper presents the first partial simplified analyses and preliminary results of a wider ongoing study, mainly showing a correlation between skin temperature and air temperature and a partially promising effect of light on subjective thermal perception. Our research on the effect of light on thermal comfort does not provide definitive conclusions but rather highlights the need for further investigation in actual heritage buildings. heritage buildings minimal intervention renovation thermal comfort light stavbe kulturna dediščina prenova z minimalnimi posegi termalno ugodje svetloba true false true Institute of Physics Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik © authors, 2024 Neznano 2024-12-19 08:13:31 2024-12-19 08:28:56 2024-12-20 08:13:03 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2024 0 0 Št. prispevka: 012008; Nasl. z nasl. zaslona; Opis vira z dne 11. 11. 2024; Str. 1-10 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 2024-10-01 691:699.8 1755-1315 10.1088/1755-1315/1402/1/012008 214561795 214556419 https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1755-1315/1402/1/012008 1 c1b68458-bdd8-11ef-ba3f-001a4af901a5 https://dirros.openscience.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=29862 RAZ_Zagar_Katja_2024.pdf RAZ_Zagar_Katja_2024.pdf 1 B8BE781145753EC7275AB286F2206EAE aad20c79fdaf0a27f8e0a72085b91d2f40a7e1dc445a6ce75fdf4fb31e618fe6 d444e6cf-bdda-11ef-ba3f-001a4af901a5 https://dirros.openscience.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=29864 Zavod za gradbeništvo Slovenije 0 0 0
