Other factors comfort
The overall score of bodily comfort should take into account changes in con-vective heat transfer arising from air speed and exposure to radiant heat gain or loss. These effects have been quantified in several objective formulas to give equivalent, corrected effective, globe, dry and resultant temperature of the environment, which give a fairly close agreement. This approach is more complex, where required air velocity can be high, there is no contact with hot or cold surfaces, or other special conditions require special care.
For comfort in a normal office or residential occupation, the percentage saturation of between 35 and 70%, management of dry bulb will result in comfortable conditions for most people. Feelings of personal comfort is as variable as in human nature and in any moment of 10%, occupying a space can too hot and 10% is too cold, while 80% of the votes were convenient. Such changes often arise because of a lack or excess of the local movement of air, or proximity to cold windows and not in extremes of temperature or humidity...
