04.10.05 Evaluation Index of Physiological Equivalent Temperature (PET)
Meteorological parameters are not independent of one another in their effect on humans. Thus, they require an integrated analysis. The 2 pm PET values demonstrate that the thermal load occurring during the day highly depends on the local shading situation. Looking at the early morning conditions at 4 am, it is evident that fields and meadows have cooled down dramatically, while temperatures in the built-up urban areas remain considerably higher, depending on the construction density. 04.10.05 Evaluation Index of Physiological Equivalent Temperature (PET)
