This paper presents a definition of human thermal comfort that can be used for control purposes. A control strategy and architecture based on a Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) controller format is developed. Problems and limitations are discussed and the results from both simulations and experiments are used to demonstrate the practicality of the comfort definition.
