406 Improvement of thermal environment at semi-outdoor station by the water atomization : Analysis on cooling performance and thermal comfort

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of cooling by the water atomization in semi-outdoor station. By the exhaust heat of train, the temperature of station is higher than that of the air. We established the water atomization in a part of the station. We measured the thermal environment and investigated about thermal comfort. The temperature descent by latent heat of water mist was 1℃〜2℃. Thexmal comfort indices were improved by the water atomization.
