    İç Ortamda Ortalama Radyan Sıcaklığını Elde Etmek için Farklı Yöntemlerin Doğruluğunun Karşılaştırılması
    (2021) Özbey, Mehmet Furkan; Turhan, Cihan; Lotfısadıgh, Bahram
    Amerikan Isıtma Soğutma ve Klima Mühendisleri Birliği (ASHRAE), ısıl konforu bir kişinin bulunduğu ortamdaki memnuniyetini ifade eden öznel ve zihinsel değerlendirme ile elde edilen zihin koşulları olarak tanımlanmıştır. Isıl konfor, geleneksel olarak Fanger'in Ortalama Tahmini Oy (PMV) / Memnuniyetsizliklerin Tahmini Yüzdesi (PPD) metodu ve kişilerin davranışlarını da içeren adaptif ısıl konfor metotları ile elde edilmektedir. Isıl konfor parametreleri kişisel parametreler (giysi değeri ve metabolizma hızı) ve çevresel parametreler (hava sıcaklığı, bağıl nem, hava hızı ve ortalama radyan sıcaklığı) olarak üzere iki farklı kategoride ele almaktadır. Bu parametreler arasında, Ortalama Radyan Sıcaklık ölçülmesinin ve hesaplanmasının karmaşık olmasından dolayı elde edilmesi zor bir faktördür. İç ortamlarda ortalama radyan sıcaklığı elde etme yaklaşımları hesaplama yöntemleri, ölçüm yöntemleri ve varsayımlar gibi farklı yöntemlere dayanmaktadır. Ancak hesaplama yöntemlerinin karmaşık olması ve ölçüm yöntemleri için kullanılacak ölçüm aletlerinin pahalı ve elde edilmesi zor araçlar olması araştırmacıları doğruluğu kesin olmayan varsayımlara yönlendirmektedir. Bu nedenle, bu çalışmanın amacı ortalama radyan sıcaklığın elde edilme yöntemlerinin ölçüm yöntemlerinden birisi olan ve bu çalışma için üretilen küre termometresini referans alıp diğer metotlar ile karşılaştırılarak tüm yöntemlerin doğruluğunu bulmaktır. Bu çalışmada Köppen- Geiger sınıflandırmasına göre Csb tipi iklim bölgesinde bulunan bir test odası seçilmiştir ve ortalama radyatif sıcaklığı elde etmek için kullanılan 2 farklı hesaplama yöntemi ve 8 farklı varsayım yerinde ölçümle referans metodu ile karşılaştırılmıştır. Sonuçlar, ortalama radyan sıcaklığı elde etmek için varsayımların veya hesaplama yöntemlerinin kullanılmasının, referans yönteme kıyasla %9,1'e varan bir hataya neden olduğunu ortaya koydu.

    Integration of Psychological Parameters Into a Thermal Sensation Prediction Model for Intelligent Control of the Hvac Systems
    (Elsevier Science Sa, 2023) Turhan, Cihan; Ozbey, Mehmet Furkan; Lotfi, Bahram; Akkurt, Gulden Gokcen; Gökçen Akkurt, Gülden
    Conventional thermal comfort models take physiological parameters into account on thermal comfort models. On the other hand, psychological behaviors are also proven as a vital parameter which affects the thermal sensation. In the literature, limited studies which combine both physiological and psychological parameters on the thermal sensation models are exist. To this aim, this study develops a novel Thermal Sensation Prediction Model (TSPM) in order to control the HVAC system by considering both parameters. A data-driven TSPM, which includes Fuzzy Logic (FL) model, is developed and coded using Phyton language by the authors. Two physiological parameters (Mean Radiant Temperature and External Temperature) and one psychological parameter (Emotional Intensity Score (EIS) including Vigour, Depression, Tension with total of 32 subscales) are selected as inputs of the model. Besides the physiological parameters which are decided intentionally considering a manual ventilated building property, the most influencing three sub- psychological parameters on thermal sensation are also selected in the study. While the physiological parameters are measured via environmental data loggers, the psychological parameters are collected simultaneously by the Profile of Mood States questionnaire. A total of 1159 students are participated to the questionnaire at a university study hall between 15th of August 2021 and 15th of September 2022. The results showed that the novel model predicted Thermal Sensation Vote (TSV) with an accuracy of 0.92 of R2. The output of this study may help to develop an integrated Heating Ventilating and Air Conditioning (HVAC) system with Artificial Intelligence - enabled Emulators that also includes psychological parameters.

    Sensitivity Analysis of the Effect of Current Mood States on the Thermal Sensation in Educational Buildings
    (Wiley-hindawi, 2022) Ozbey, Mehmet Furkan; Ceter, Aydin Ege; Orfioglu, Sevval; Alkan, Nese; Turhan, Cihan
    Adaptive thermal comfort is a model which considers behavioral and psychological adjustments apart from Fanger's Predicted Mean Vote (PMV)/Percentage of Dissatisfied (PPD) method. In the literature, the differences between the PMV/PPD method and adaptive thermal comfort were mainly considered in aspects of behavioral adjustments in an environment. Conversely, limited studies related to psychological adjustments were considered in detail for thermal comfort. This study purposes to investigate the effects of current mood state subscales on thermal sensation of the occupants for the first time in the literature. To this aim, the Profile of Mood States (POMS) questionnaire is used to determine the mood state of the occupants with six different subscales: Anger, Confusion, Vigor, Tension, Depression, and Fatigue. The experiments were conducted in a university study hall in Ankara, Turkey, which is in warm-summer Mediterranean climate (Csb) according to Koppen-Geiger Climate Classification. The distributions of each subscale were examined via Anderson Darling and Shapiro-Wilk tests accordingly given responses from the occupants. The sensitivity analysis was applied to the six subscales of the POMS with Monte Carlo simulation method by considering the distributions of each subscale. The results revealed that the current mood state has a crucial effect on the thermal sensation of the occupants. The subscales of the Depression and Vigor were found as the most vital ones among the six subscales. Only the pure effects of the Vigor and Depression would change the thermal sensation of the occupants 0.31 and 0.30, respectively. The Confusion was determined as the least effective subscale to the thermal sensation of the occupants. Moreover, with the combination of all the six subscales, the thermal sensation might change up to 1.32. Findings in this study would help researchers to develop the personalized thermal comfort systems.

    A Novel Comfort Temperature Determination Model Based on Psychology of the Participants for Educational Buildings in a Temperate Climate Zone
    (Elsevier, 2023) Ozbey, Mehmet Furkan; Turhan, Cihan
    Maintaining thermal comfort in the educational buildings is vital due to the impacts on learning effectiveness of students. Therefore, development of a proper comfort temperature in educational buildings is a must. In naturally ventilated and mixed-mode buildings, the adaptive thermal comfort model, which considers additively psychological, and behavioural factors to the Fanger's PMV/PPD model, is commonly applied based on regression analyses. However, the psychological adjustments based on current mood state are very limited in these adaptive thermal comfort models. Therefore, this study focuses on the psychological adjustments in terms of Profile of Mood States in order to predict comfort temperature of students in a case building. The experiments are conducted in a university on a temperate climate zone for a long period-data including both heating and cooling seasons. In this study, the comfort temperatures for each student are determined via Griffith method for the case building. Moreover, the current mood states of students are assessed utilizing the Profile of Mood States survey, which are collected via a developed mobile application. As a conclusion, the relation between the current mood state of the students and comfort temperature are statistically investigated. The results show that a Griffith constant are found as 0.332/K and mean annual comfort temperature is found as 21.32 degrees C in the case building. Additionally, a significant difference is found in the comfort temperatures among the students who have more, or fewer concerns than typically reported. The novelty of the study is to present a comfort temperature determination model which considers human psychology as a starter study in the literature.

    Impact of Green Wall and Roof Applications on Energy Consumption and Thermal Comfort for Climate Resilient Buildings
    (Mdpi, 2025) Turhan, Cihan; Carpino, Cristina; Austin, Miguel Chen; Ozbey, Mehmet Furkan; Akkurt, Gulden Gokcen; Chen Austin, Miguel
    Nowadays, reducing energy consumption and obtaining thermal comfort are significant for making educational buildings more climate resilient, more sustainable, and more comfortable. To achieve these goals, a sustainable passive method is that of applying green walls and roofs that provide extra thermal insulation, evaporative cooling, a shadowing effect, and the blockage of wind on buildings. Therefore, the objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of green wall and roof applications on energy consumption and thermal comfort in an educational building. For this purpose, a university building in the Csb climate zone is selected and monitored during one year, as a case study. Then, the case building is modelled in a well-calibrated dynamic building energy simulation tool and twenty-one different plant species, which are mostly used for green walls and roofs, are applied to the envelope of the building in order to determine a reduction in energy consumption and an increase in thermal comfort. The Hedera canariensis gomera (an ivy species) plant is used for green walls due to its aesthetic appeal, versatility, and functional benefits while twenty-one different plants including Ophiopogon japonicus (Mando-Grass), Phyllanthus bourgeoisii (Waterfall Plant), and Phoenix roebelenii (Phoenix Palm) are simulated for the green roof applications. The results show that deploying Hedera canariensis gomera to the walls and Phyllanthus bourgeoisii to the roof could simultaneously reduce the energy consumption by 9.31% and increase thermal comfort by 23.55% in the case building. The authors acknowledge that this study is solely based on simulations due to the high cost of all scenarios, and there are inherent differences between simulated and real-world conditions. Therefore, the future work will be analysing scenarios in real life. Considering the limited studies on the effect of different plant species on energy performance and comfort, this study also contributes to sustainable building design strategies.

    Latent Psychological Pathways in Thermal Comfort Perception: The Mediating Role of Cognitive Uncertainty on Depression and Vigour
    (MDPI, 2025) Ozbey, Mehmet Furkan; Turhan, Cihan; Alkan, Nese; Akkurt, Gulden Gokcen
    Thermal comfort is the condition of mind that expresses satisfaction with the thermal environment, and it is assessed through subjective evaluation, according to the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers. While research has traditionally emphasised physical factors, growing evidence highlights the role of the state of mind in shaping thermal perception. In a prior Monte Carlo sensitivity analysis, six mood subscales-Anger, Confusion, Vigour, Tension, Depression, and Fatigue-were examined for how they affect the absolute difference between actual and predicted thermal sensation. Depression and vigour were found to be the most influential, while confusion appeared least impactful. However, to accurately assess the role of confusion, it is necessary to consider its potential interactions with other mood subscales. To this end, a mediation analysis was conducted using Hayes' PROCESS tool. The mediation analyses revealed that confusion partially mediated depression's effect in males and vigour's effect in females. These results suggest that, despite a weak direct impact, confusion critically influences thermal perception by altering the effects of key mood states. Accounting for the indirect effects of mood states may lead to more accurate predictions of human sensory experiences and improve the design of occupant-centred environments.

    Modelling the Positive and Negative Interaction Between Mood and Thermal Sensation in the Built Environment Using a Combined Markov Chain Monte Carlo Algorithm and Morris Method
    (Sage Publications Ltd, 2025) Ozbey, Mehmet Furkan; Turhan, Cihan
    Mood states, categorized into subscales such as Tension (TEN), Anger (ANG), Fatigue (FAT), Vigour (VIG), Confusion (CON), and Depression (DEP), affect occupants' perceptions of thermal environments. This study investigates the influence of these subscales on thermal sensation, exploring both positive and negative effects. Experiments were conducted in a temperate climate zone over an extended period, including both heating and cooling seasons, with 1159 volunteers. The Morris Method was used to assess the impact of psychological parameters (TEN, ANG, FAT, VIG, CON, DEP) on thermal sensation. Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) simulations, performed via Python code developed by the authors, evaluated the positive and negative impacts of these subscales across 30,000 simulations. Results showed that VIG was the most influential parameter, while CON and FAT had negative effects (feeling cooler) on thermal sensation. These findings emphasize the complex relationship between psychological factors and thermal perception, underlining the importance of mood states in designing environments that enhance thermal comfort. The study offers valuable insights into the interplay of emotional well-being and physiological responses, contributing to environmental psychology and climate-responsive design.

    The Importance of the Calculation of Angle Factors To Determine the Mean Radiant Temperature in Temperate Climate Zone: a University Office Building Case
    (Sage Publications Ltd, 2022) Ozbey, Mehmet Furkan; Turhan, Cihan
    Thermal comfort depends on four environmental (air velocity, relative humidity, air temperature, mean radiant temperature) and two personal (clothing insulation and metabolic rate) parameters. Among all parameters, the mean radiant temperature (t(r)) is the most problematic variable in thermal comfort studies due to its complexity. Measurement methods, calculation methods and assumptions are mostly used to obtain the t(r). Researchers mainly prefer to obtain the t(r) via measurement methods or assumptions due to their easiness compared to the calculation methods. Besides, some researchers use constant values of angle factors in calculation methods. However, using constant values is not proper for every indoor environment, and it causes wrong estimations in the t(r) and thus the thermal comfort. This paper gives the importance of calculation of angle factors, with an example of a university office building in temperate climate zone, according to the ISO 7726. The angle factors of the room were calculated for a seated occupant from the centre of gravity in three different locations and compared with the constant angle factors. The results indicate that a significant difference (MAPE of 1.02) was found in the t(r) values, which were obtained by calculation of constant values of angle factors.

    A Case Study on the Assumption of Mean Radiant Temperature Equals To Indoor Air Temperature in a Free-Running Building
    (2021) Özbey, Mehmet Furkan; Turhan, Cihan
    Thermal comfort is basically affected by environmental (mean radiant temperature, indoor air temperature and relative humidity and air velocity) and personal parameters (clothing value and activity level). Mean Radiant Temperature is the most complicated parameter among all thermal comfort parameters due to the difficulty of measurement and calculation processes. Calculation methods are not preferred by the researchers because of the complexity of obtaining angle factors while the measurement methods require very expensive devices such as globe thermometers and radiometers. On the other hand, assumptions are commonly used in thermal comfort studies because of their simplicities. One of the most frequently used assumptions expresses the equality of mean radiant temperature to indoor air temperature. However, the accuracy of this assumption needs further experimental research in order to evaluate thermal comfort, especially in free-running buildings. To this aim, this study proposes to determine the accuracy of the assumption of mean radiant temperature equals to indoor air temperature in a free-running building where Adaptive Thermal Comfort approach is applied in summer condition. Environmental parameters are measured via objective sensors, while adaptive thermal comfort is assessed by a software program. The statistical results show that there are significant deviations between two parameters in summer conditions for a free-running building.

    Effect of Pre-And Post-Exam Stress Levels on Thermal Sensation of Students
    (Elsevier Science Sa, 2021) Turhan, Cihan; Ozbey, Mehmet Furkan
    The Predicted Mean Vote and Predicted Percentage of Dissatisfied (PMV/PPD) method is used worldwide to assess thermal comfort. The PMV/PPD method traditionally depends on four environmental parameters; air temperature, relative humidity, mean radiant temperature and air velocity, and two personal parameters; metabolic rate and clothing insulation. However, accurate modelling of thermal comfort requires consideration of psychological impacts, as well as associated physical responses to the environment. This paper investigates the effect of one of the psychological parameters; stress level on the thermal sensation of students for male and female which can be a sufficient limitation of the accuracy of thermal comfort/sensation models. Actual Thermal Sensation (ATS) and Profile of Mood States (POMS) are used to examine the effect of stress level on the thermal sensation. Pre-test-Post-test Control (PPC) experimental design is conducted on the students in a university, Ankara, Turkey, which has a Csb type climate zone according to Koppen-Geiger climate classification. First, students are split into two random groups; control and experimental groups. The students in experimental group are requested to attend exam while the students in control group read their favourite books. Then, students are subjected to pre-and post-exam surveys in order to understand the relationship between stress level and ATS. As a supportive analysis, Heart Rate (HR) and Skin Temperature (ST) are also included in the study as sympathetic responses of occupants to the thermal discomfort due to stress. Smart wristbands and infrared thermometers are used to measure Heart Rate and Skin Temperature of the students. Results showed that there is a difference between control group and experimental group before the exam (pre-test) except the ST of females. After the exam (post-test), there are no significant differences between two groups. (C) 2020 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
