ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 55: Thermal Environmental Conditions for Human Occupancy is an American National Standard published by ASHRAE that establishes the ranges of indoor environmental conditions to achieve acceptable thermal comfort for occupants of buildings. It was first published in 1966, and since 2004 has been updated every three to six years.
English: This psychrometric chart represents the acceptable combination of air temperature and humidity values, according to the PMV/PPD method in the ASHRAE 55-2010 Standard. The comfort zone in blue represents the 90% of acceptability, which means the conditions between -0.5 and +0.5 PMV, or PPD < 10%.
Thermal comfort calculations in accordance with the ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 55, [1] the ISO 7730 Standard [7] and the EN 16798-1 Standard [8] can be freely performed with either the CBE Thermal Comfort Tool for ASHRAE 55, [9] with the Python package pythermalcomfort [10] or with the R package comf.
According to ASHRAE-55 standard, only if individuals are freely making adjustments in clothing to suit their thermal preferences, it is acceptable to use a single representative average value for everyone. [1] Some basic insulation values can be considered as examples of typical conditions [13] naked body: 0; summer clothing: 0.6 clo; ski ...
ASHRAE was founded in 1894 at a meeting of engineers in New York City, formerly headquartered at 345 East 47th Street, and has held an annual meeting since 1895. [4] Until 1954 it was known as the American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers (ASHVE); in that year it changed its name to the American Society of Heating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHAE).

Certain types of headaches may be a sign of a more serious condition, such as a brain tumor or aneurysm, especially if the pain is sudden or severe, according to Cohen. "This highlights the ...
The norm ISO 7730 and the ASHRAE 55 standard give the predicted percentage of dissatisfied occupants (PPD) as a function of the radiant temperature asymmetry and specify the acceptable limits. In general, people are more sensitive to asymmetric radiation caused by a warm ceiling than that caused by hot and cold vertical surfaces.
