Computational Analysis of Thermal Building in a No-uniform Thermal Environment

To predict of the thermal sensation of people located in no-uniform environment, it is very important to define the local heat transfer detail. In this context, the purpose was to make thermal comfort comparison between temperature settings of air conditioning. The temperature was maintained at five...
