Crate thermalcomfort 

Thermal Comfort Library

A comprehensive Rust port of the pythermalcomfort Python package for thermal comfort calculations. This library is no_std compatible and can run in WASM environments.

This library provides tools for calculating thermal comfort indices, heat/cold stress metrics, and thermophysiological responses using multiple models including:

• PMV/PPD (Predicted Mean Vote and Predicted Percentage Dissatisfied) - ISO 7730 & ASHRAE 55
• Adaptive comfort models (ASHRAE 55 and EN 16798)
• UTCI (Universal Thermal Climate Index)
• SET (Standard Effective Temperature)
• Heat stress indices (WBGT, Heat Index, etc.)
• And many more…

Example

use thermalcomfort::{pmv_ppd_iso, v_relative, Temperature, Speed, Humidity, MetabolicRate, ClothingInsulation};

let tdb = Temperature::from_celsius(25.0);
let tr = Temperature::from_celsius(25.0);
let rh = Humidity::from_percent(50.0);
let v = Speed::from_meters_per_second(0.1);
let met = MetabolicRate::from_met(1.4);
let clo = ClothingInsulation::from_clo(0.5);

// Calculate relative air speed
let vr = v_relative(v, met);

// Calculate PMV and PPD
let result = pmv_ppd_iso(
    tdb,
    tr,
    vr,
    rh,
    met,
    clo,
    Default::default()
);
