English abstract:
This paper presents the initial analyses of a thermal comfort assessment study regarding transitional thermal states. Thereby, multiple groups of participants moved through a number of spaces with
different thermal conditions. The thermal sensation and comfort evaluations of the participants were assessed before transition, immediately after the spatial transition, and after a short period of adaptation. The main objective of the study was to explore the relationship between before-after temperature change and the
resulting shift in participants' expressed thermal sensation and comfort.
