Textbook Question
Chapter 4, Problem 4.9P
What do you think is the best thermostat setting (air dry bulb temperature) in a shop where the workmen are standing, walking, lifting, and performing various machining tasks? Assume that a globe temperature measurement reads 72 F (22 C), the relative humidity will be in the 45 percent range, and air motion will likely be around 30 ft/mm (0.15 m/s). The men are dressed in typical summer garments
