ASHRAE grant to explore occupant comfort, energy use
A new grant provided by ASHRAE will aim to find out how much energy occupants expend in offices and how that impacts their personal comfort.
Better tools for quantifying the comfort and behavior of building occupants as an integral part of the building design and operation processes will be developed by Jared Langevin of Drexel University through his project, “Human Behavior and Low Energy Architecture: Linking Environmental Adaptation, Personal Comfort, and Energy Use in the Built Environment.”
