The purpose of this paper is to obtain thermal response of internal furniture in office building. Thermal capacity of furniture is estimated through field survey in recent office buildings. Thermal delay chracteristics of various types of furniture is analyzed through experiment. The procedure of experiment is the following. 1. An adiabatic room is built in the guardroom in which temperature maintains constant. 2. Step heat input is given the adiabatic room by electric heating device and globe temperature change is measured. 3. Furniture is set in the adiabatic room. 4. Experiment is made as Procedure 2. Analysis of globe temperature change leads to obtain of thermal absorptive response of furniture for step change of room temperature. Using the results of the above field survey and experiment, it is possible to show the effect of internal furniture on space heating load.
