    Project Details

    Description

    Using aclimate chamber, will systematically test a range of air velocities across nine different combinations of airtemperature and humidity that simulate typical overnight conditions in the African region. In this way, our project willdetermine the minimum air velocity required to improve sleep quality without exacerbating the risk of dehydration or heat stress, and how this air velocity changes as a function of higher air temperature or humidity
