The purpose of this study was to examine theory about indoor thermal comfort-environment as well as to determine thermal sensation and physiological responses for men in summer indoor environment, under various air temperature and relative humidity, with male university students. Subjective Evaluation, Heart Rate(Electrocardiogram), Electroencephalogram(EEG) were examined. We found that comfort of people was achieved at SE $T^{*}$ 24.7$^{\circ}C$, -0.82＜PMV＜0.93, subject's clothing(0.41c1o)and the difference of skin temperature was found at the calf area as air temperature changes. At low SE $T^{*}$, heart rate was decreased and at high SE $T^{*}$, heart rate was increased but there was no change EEG(keeping $\alpha$-wave).wave).

Recently, many researchers are studying the relation between thermal environment and human comfort. The purpose of this study was to obtain basic data which are necessary to determine the thermal comfort sensation and physiological responses for men in winter indoor environment. From January to February 1998, subject experiment was 40 times proceeded under twenty different conditions of air temperature and relative humidity with early-twenty male university students. We examined subjective evaluation, Electrocardiogram(ECG), Electroencephalogram(EEG) of subjects. The results of this study can be summarized as follows : The comfort zone of people in winter was achieved at Standard new effective temperature($SET^*$) $ 25.2^{\circ}C$, PMV range was obtained by Fanger's statistical calculation was －0.27＜PMV＜＋0.62, TSV range obtained subjects vote was －0.76＜TSV＜＋0.36. The largest difference of skin temperature was found at the calf area as air temperature changes. vote rate of human body presented calflongrightarrowheadlongrightarrowforearmlongrightarrowchestlongrightarrowabdo men in turn. Heart rate was decreased at low $SET^*$ and heart rate was increased at high $SET^*$ But there was no change at EEG.
