摘要: This study investigated the relationships between thermal conditions and perceived learning performance (PLP) by comparing air-conditioned (AC) fan-assisted naturally ventilated (FANV) environments. The aimed to provide evidence support decision-making on use of natural ventilation in mixed-mode higher education buildings hot–humid climates. A questionnaire survey PLP environmental comfort, including visual hearing air freshness overall was conducted seven typical classrooms. Indoor temperatures, relative humidity velocity classrooms were also measured during period survey. When scores AC FANV modes, no significant difference found students same state comfort (i.e. neutral comfortable), except for uncomfortable groups – which had significantly lower than those classrooms....
