  2. Heating degree day - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heating_degree_day

    Since a 1 °C temperature change and a 1 K change in absolute temperature are the same, these cancel and no conversion is required. Example: For a typical New York City winter day with high of 40 °F and low of 30 °F, the average temperature is likely to be around 35 °F. For such a day we can approximate the HDD as (65 − 35) = 30.

  3. Radiant heating and cooling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiant_heating_and_cooling

    The maximum temperature of the heating surface can vary from 29–35 °C (84–95 °F) depending on the room type. Radiant overhead panels are mostly used in production and warehousing facilities or sports centers; they hang a few meters above the floor and their surface temperatures are much higher.

    Local discomfort caused by floor temperature and radiant temperature asymmetry should be measured at the floor surface and at the occupants’ locations, respectively. [ 12 ] The standard suggests that the time of measurements should last two or more hours long, and it should also be a representative time of the year for this specific building.

    The primary cooling/heating agent temperature is close to the room's temperature. radiant floor A type of radiant heating system where the building floor contains channels or tubes through which hot fluids such as air or water are circulated. The whole floor is evenly heated. Thus, the room is heated from the bottom up.

  9. Thermal destratification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_destratification

    The study indicates that stratified buildings tend to overheat or overcool based on the temperature at the thermostat, which tends to be lower than the overall heat energy present in the room. The study also showed that energy waste due to stratification was present at ceiling heights ranging from 20 ft. to 40 ft, and higher ceilings caused ...
