Abstract
Abstract
Thermal comfort of indoors lead to better satisfaction. A thermal analysis of heating energy requirements were conducted before the construction of a new campus building. After the completion of the construction, thermal comfort studies were conducted to study the indoor conditions. The use of hollow block wall was recommended against the conventional brick wall.
