2- consider the following levels of comfort:

• Summer inside Temperatures between 23 e 27 °C

 

• Winter inside Temperatures between  18 e 22 °C


• Relative Humidity between 25 - 60%


• Maximun Velocity in occupied zone:
    - 0,25 m/sec - Cooling
    - 0,15 m/sec - Heating


•Max temperature gradient from floor to 180 cm is 5°C.
