This set of Air-Conditioning Multiple Choice Questions & Answers (MCQs) focuses on “Comfort Air-Conditioning”.
1. Which of the following is true about the optimum effective temperature for human comfort?
a) Same in winter and summer
b) Not dependent on season
c) Lower in winter than in summer
d) Higher in winter than in summer
View Answer
Explanation: Optimum effective temperature is dependent on climatic and seasonal changes. So, for human comfort, the optimum effective temperature is lower in winter than in summer.
2. The heat production from a normal healthy man when asleep is about _________
a) 50 W
b) 40 W
c) 70 W
d) 60 W
View Answer

b) WBT
c) Air velocity
d) DBT
View Answer
Explanation: The degree of warmth or cold felt by the human body depends mainly on dry bulb temperature, air velocity and relative humidity.
5. The effective temperature increases with a decrease in relative humidity at the same DBT.
a) True
b) False
View Answer
