PMC (Physiological Model of Climate)

The Physiological Model of Climate (PMC) suggests that human comfort is influenced by how our bodies respond to environmental conditions such as temperature, humidity, and airflow. It considers factors like heat production, heat loss, and moisture regulation to explain why people feel comfortable or uncomfortable in different climates. Essentially, PMC helps us understand how our body's physiological processes interact with the environment, guiding the design of spaces and clothing to improve comfort and health. It emphasizes the importance of conditions that support our body's natural ability to maintain a stable internal temperature.
