  • Thermal requirements for the elderly in indoor environment [Elektronski vir]
    Lampret, Žiga ; Prek, Matjaž
    Microclimate conditions in the indoor environment have a significant impact on the health and well-being of individuals. This is especially the case for the elderly who spend most of their time ... indoors. Thermal comfort is one of the main aspects for ensuring comfortable and healthy indoor climate. Elderly thermal requirements differ from those of young adults due to the aging induced decreased human ability for thermoregulation. Consequently, the current thermal comfort models insufficiently capture differences in thermal requirements for different age groups. If we want to provide quality living environment for the elderly, it is necessary to define accurately thermal environment preferences and needs of the elderly. This paper gives an overview of the physiological changes occurring in the elderly and the implications on the thermal sensation and perception of thermal comfort, based on an evaluation of published field studies on the subject of elderly thermal sensation.
