For example, when entering/exiting an air-conditioned building from/to outdoors people may suffer not only thermal discomfort but also even some potential health problems. In this study, the influence of different air temperature step-changes (S5:32°C-37°C-32 °C, S11:26°C-37°C-26 °C, and S15:22°C-37°C-22 °C) on human health and thermal comfort was...
