الملخصQatar tops the world in per capita CO2 emissions and per capita total primary energy supply. Adaptive comfort standards and thermal comfort field survey data are not available for Qatar. We conducted a thermal comfort survey in Doha, Qatar, for five summer months in 2016. In nine typical randomly selected air-conditioned office buildings, 828 subjects returned 1926 questionnaires. We found 24.1 °C as Griffiths comfort temperature. Subjects mostly felt cooler sensation (mean: −0.23). Fanger’s Predicted Mean Vote always overestimated the actual sensation. We recorded very low to near still air conditions in all the indoors (mean speed: 0.04 m/s.) While 39.1% occupants felt neutral, 72.1% voted in the central band of the sensation scale and 85% accepted the environments. The occupants adapted through clothing. Clothing insulation significantly varied with air temperature. Public buildings are significantly cooler than the private buildings, and yet are less acceptable throughout the survey.
راعي المشروعQatar National Research Fund (QNRF) through National Priorities Research Program (Grant number: NPRP-7-143-2-070) funded this research. The Japan Society for Promotion of Science and The University of Tokyo, Japan provided the instruments used. We acknowledge their support. We profoundly thank all the corporate heads of the companies, building managers, heads of the offices, and the occupants for their co-operation and participation in the field surveys. We highly regard the support of Late Allakky Sreenivas in facilitating the surveys at his offices in Doha. Rasha Al-Najjar of Kuwait University, Lahari Indraganti of University of California, Davis and Dhanya Indraganti of Rishi Valley School, India are acknowledged for their field survey assistance. Also thanked are the anonymous reviewers for their incisive, valuable critique. The authors take the sole responsibility for the views expressed in this paper.
