Thermal comfort analysis evaluates how indoor and outdoor environmental conditions influence occupant comfort and building performance. This service focuses on assessing parameters such as air temperature, humidity, airflow, and solar heat gain to determine thermal comfort levels using recognized indices like Predicted Mean Vote (PMV) and Predicted Percentage of Dissatisfied (PPD). Using advanced simulation tools within IESVE, the study helps identify overheating risks, optimize building design, and support climate-responsive strategies that reduce dependence on mechanical cooling systems.
