The ASHRAE-55 2010 Standard introduced the prevailing mean outdoor temperature as the input variable for the adaptive model. It is based on the arithmetic average of the mean daily outdoor temperatures over no fewer than 7 and no more than 30 sequential days prior to the day in question. [1]
For this model the standard provides a graph of acceptable indoor temperature limits at prevailing mean outdoor temperatures (a mean of the daily mean outdoor temperatures of the previous 7–30 days). An accompanying table lists provisions for higher operative temperatures at air speeds above 0.3 m/s (59 ft/min) and up to 1.2 m/s (240 ft/min).
Mean radiant temperature has been both qualitatively defined and quantitatively evaluated for both indoor and outdoor environments. [1] [2] [3] MRT has been defined as the uniform temperature of an imaginary enclosure in which the radiant heat transfer from the human body is equal to the radiant heat transfer in the actual non-uniform enclosure ...
Come summer, the preferred temperature shifts to balance comfort with energy efficiency, survey authors say. During the warmest season, survey-takers say: 42% like the air conditioning set between ...

The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language identifies room temperature as around 20–22 °C (68–72 °F; 293–295 K), [1] while the Oxford English Dictionary states that it is "conventionally taken as about 20 °C (68 °F; 293 K)". [2] Ideal room temperature varies vastly depending on the surrounding climate.

The wet-bulb globe temperature (WBGT) is a measure of environmental heat as it affects humans. Unlike a simple temperature measurement, WBGT accounts for all four major environmental heat factors: air temperature, humidity, radiant heat (from sunlight or sources such as furnaces), and air movement (wind or ventilation).
