The present investigation was focused on the analysis of indoor air quality characteristics of an air conditioned car using statistical approach. The conditioned space was selected and the experiments were planned as per design of experiments to study the effect of human load, fresh air supply and air velocity on the human comfort conditions. The nonlinear regression models were developed to predict the comfort conditions namely temperature, CO2 level and relative humidity over a specified range of input conditions in this investigation.

Abstract


The present investigation was focused on the analysis of indoor air quality characteristics of an air conditioned car using statistical approach. The conditioned space was selected and the experiments were planned as per design of experiments to study the effect of human load, fresh air supply and air velocity on the human comfort conditions. The nonlinear regression models were developed to predict the comfort conditions namely temperature, CO2 level and relative humidity over a specified range of input conditions in this investigation.
