The connection between the sleep environment and quality of sleep is significant. To get a good night's rest, a person needs to be in an environment conducive to sleep, which means having or creating the right conditions for it. Thermal Sleeping Environments: Control and Optimization provides a comprehensive coverage on cutting-edge heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) equipment; novel bed-based task/ambient conditioning (TAC) systems; and advanced materials for building envelopes, bedroom furniture, and textiles for beddings. The performance of the technologies presented is analyzed through thermal comfort charts and modeling endeavors, which are in turn validated by the notions of human physiological responses during sleep. The foundational principles of fluid mechanics alongside sustainably built environment and energy efficiency considerations also complement this discussion.Written by academic experts who aim to compile a unique reference resource to foster further subject matter research, this book should appeal to a broad range of readers whose work or study interests focuses on sustainable buildings and the wellbeing of their occupants. - Includes the latest research developments focused on indoor thermal environments and their optimization for sleep - Offers applicable guidance to control indoor thermal environments for quality sleep, bridging the gap between research and practice - Contributes to an interdisciplinary investigation that has generated much interest in both academic and industry research contexts
