This thesis examines the development of a measuring environmental conditions
system for the determination of thermal comfort on a mobile telephone platform.
Firstly we study the thermal comfort criteria and the environmental conditions that
influence the comfort. Also we study the instruments for measuring these physical
quantities. Additional we evaluate the characteristics of available operating systems
and materials to enable the measurement system implementation. The examination
of these characteristics is the basis for the selection of appropriate materials and
the mobile platform for the development of the application, which in this case is the
iOS platform. For measuring and recording equipment we choose the Arduino Uno
SMD board with microprocessor and thus the programming language C. The
selection of a platform dictates the development environment that has to be used,
which for iOS is the Xcode environment with Objective C/C++ programming
language. The software development follows the UML methodology which is based
on the creation of diagrams as intermediate products during the development of the
static, as well as the dynamic system model. The application was developed
according to the requirements and calculations in standard ISO 7730 "Ergonomics
of the thermal environment - Analytical determination and interpretation of thermal
comfort using calculation of the PMV and PPD indices and local thermal comfort
criteria". Finally, the thesis presents a comparative analysis of the measurements acquired
by our measurement system, with those obtained through the use of specialized
measuring instruments.
