Abstract

This paper deals with the first comprehensive thermal comfort study made in the centre of Szeged, a southern Hungarian town. We calculated the Predicted Mean Vote index with the RayMan model from measured meteorological parameters (objective approach). Within the frameworks of a simultaneously conducted social survey people estimated their thermal comfort (Actual Sensation Vote), so we could compare these subjective values with the objective results. We recorded also a number of subjective features on questionnaires in order to determine which factors influence the thermal comfort the most.
