Effect of time-of-day on human dynamic thermal perception: subjective and skin temperature data

Dataset from a localized dynamic thermal comfort experiment. The laboratory experiment consisted in exposing the participants to four sequences of partial-body cooling induced by a fan over 130 min under a neutral whole-body thermal condition as predicted by Fanger’s PMV model. The same experimental procedure was repeated at two different times of the day (afternoon and evening, i.e. starting at 12:00 pm and 19:00) . Both environmental, physiological (skin temperature) and subjective (thermal sensation and thermal pleasure) data were collected during the exposure.
