英国地铁环境的热舒适条件，尤其是伦敦地铁系统的热舒适条件，近年来受到媒体的曝光。然而，关于冷却具有大量热负荷的地下铁路系统的复杂性和困难的文章却很少，更不用说维多利亚时代设计和建造的地铁系统了。深而小的隧道使得地下铁路环境的冷却不同于传统空调中通常遇到的情况，而且该过程是能源和资本密集型的。这可能导致这样的结论：在地下铁路环境中，办公室的可接受的热舒适标准可能无法实现，并且也许不完全等于办公室水平的热舒适标准在这样的环境中可能是可接受的。本文的这一部分回顾了已发表的有关地下铁路环境热舒适性的研究。结果将与因地铁系统内的热条件而不满意的乘客的百分比相关。根据这些结果，将尝试为地下铁路环境定义“可接受的”热舒适标准。
The thermal comfort conditions in underground railway environments in the UK, especially those found on the London underground railway system, have in recent years received exposure in the press. However, little has been written on the complications and difficulties associated with cooling an underground railway system with a massive heat load let alone one designed and constructed by Victorians. The deep and small tunnels make cooling of the underground railway environment differ from those normally encountered in conventional air conditioning and also the process is energy and capital intensive. This may lead to the conclusion that the acceptable thermal comfort criteria for say an office may not be achievable in an underground railway environment and perhaps thermal comfort criteria not quite equalling the office level maybe acceptable in such an environment. This part of the paper reviews published work on thermal comfort for the underground railway environment. The results will be correlated with the percentage of dissatisfied passengers due to the thermal conditions within the underground railway system. Based on these results, an attempt will be made to define “acceptable” thermal comfort criteria for an underground railway environment.
