There are two kinds of Thermal-Sensation research: climate chamber research and field research. Field research has the advantage of normally, so that peoples' responses are likely to be similar to those in daily life, and the environments fairly typical of the normal housing stock. This paper describes the experimental result on the effect of heating of soles on Thermal-Sensation of subject in winter real void-space. The results are as follows;
The relationship between room temperature and thermal sensation votes was determined. Using a primary approximation line derived from an approximation line formula, we found the room temperatures at which the thermal sensation throughout the body was neutral. This room temperature was 23.8°C when soles were unheated, 20.2°C when soles were heated. We found that direct contact heating of the soles has a greater effect on thermal sensation throughout the body wholes in winter real void-space.
