Foreword
This standard was drafted in accordance with the rules given in GB/T 1.1-2009.
This standard is equivalent to the adoption of ISO 7726.1998 "Ergonomics of Thermal Environment Physical Quantities Measuring Instruments".
The Chinese documents that have a consistent correspondence relationship with the normatively cited international documents in this standard are as follows.
---GB/T 18049-2017 Ergonomics of thermal environment through calculation of PMV and PPD index and local thermal comfort criteria
Analysis, measurement and interpretation of thermal comfort (ISO 7730.2005, IDT)
This standard has made the following editorial changes.
---Adjusted the number of formulas in the appendix according to the specification.
This standard was proposed and managed by the National Ergonomics Standardization Technical Committee (SAC/TC7).

Introduction
This standard is one of a series of documents applied to the ergonomics research of thermal environment.
This series of standards mainly involves the following aspects.
---The final clauses can be used in measurement methods, experiments or annotations that already exist or are being drafted;
--- Formulate specifications for related physical quantity test methods that describe the characteristics of the thermal environment;
---Provide several options for explaining parameters;
---The recommended value or limit value of the thermal environment suitable for standard comfortable environment and extreme environment (including heat and cold);
---Standardize the test method of individual or collective heating (cold) protection device and the effect of the process.
Any measuring instrument that can meet (or exceed) the accuracy required by this standard can be used.
The appendix introduces some recommended instruments for physical quantity measurement. The characteristics of these instruments will be based on the measurement principle, structure, and use method.
The style is different. Users can also compare the accuracy of related instruments and equipment on the market, and check that they meet the requirements of this standard.
The equipment can be used.
Ergonomics physical quantity measuring instrument for thermal environment

andspecificationoftheconditionsforthermalcomfort)
3 General principles
3.1 Comfortable and stressful environment
The specifications and methods contained in this standard are divided into two categories according to the impact of the thermal environment on people.
Type C. Its specifications and methods are mainly used for measurements made in a mild environment close to comfort.
Class S. Its specifications and methods are mainly used for measurements under high or even extreme stress environments.
The specifications and methods described in each category take into account the actual possibility of on-site measurement and the performance of currently available measuring instruments.
3.2 Physical quantities that characterize the environment
3.2.1 Overview
Determining the overall index of comfort or heat stress requires measuring physical quantities related to the environment. These physical quantities can be based on their impact on the environment
The degree of dependence is divided into two types. basic physical quantities and derived physical quantities.
3.2.2 Basic physical quantities
Each basic physical quantity can independently characterize environmental parameters. Based on the establishment of thermal balance by the human body in a thermal environment, these physical quantities are usually
It is used to define the degree of comfort or heat stress, as follows.
a) Air temperature, expressed in thermodynamic temperature (Ta) or Celsius temperature (ta);
b) Average radiation temperature, expressed in thermodynamic temperature (Tr) or Celsius temperature (tr); plane radiation temperature, expressed in thermodynamic temperature (Tpr) or
Celsius temperature (tpr) representation; the unit of direct radiation is W/m2;
