Abstract
Environments conditioned by split-type systems present comfort conditions that may vary substantially according to the position of the equipment. In this work the comfort conditions in a classroom were evaluated experimentally based on the PMV index, according to ISO 7730 Standard that defines the thermal satisfaction in occupied environments. Two split-type equipment were installed in two different positions. For each position, three different supply airflows were tested. The results showed that there is a considerable variation in the air velocity field in the room as well as in the PMV values in the two situations for three different supply airflows, showing that it is possible to establish a control of the classroom thermal comfort only by varying the supply airflow.
