Abstract

Influence of indoor air quality characteristics were carried out in theatre hall to improve the occupant's health and comfort in sitting indoor environment. This investigation is mainly focused on the optimization of indoor air quality characteristics of theatre hall using Response Surface Methodology. This paper studied the influence of different running modes of indoor Temperature, CO, O2, CO2, Relative Humidity and oxygen level. The comfort parameters were observed experimentally and better optimized indoor air quality factors were obtained by using Response surface Methodology in interior theatre hall environment. The thermal and human comfort measurement are planned as per design of experiment and conducted in one hundred to five hundred of five different human loads. Indoor and outdoor measurement of air temperature, relative humidity, carbon dioxide, Carbon monoxide, Oxygen and relative velocity were carried out in indoor at various levels of Fresh air supply, air velocity and human load. The experimental and optimized data were compared with International Standards, ASHARE 62 and etc. The results shown that the comfort level increased while fresh air supply decreased, finally this investigation is focussed on the optimized comfort parameters for the fresh air supply and air velocity in comfort theatre hall indoor environment.
