An air-conditioned classroom in Texas is maintained at 72ºF in the summer. The students attend classes in shorts, sandals, and tee shirts and are quite comfortable. In the same classroom during the winter, the same students wear wool slacks, long-sleeve shirts, and sweaters, and are equally comfortable with the room temperature maintained at 75ºF. Assuming that humidity is not a factor, explain this apparent anomaly in "temperature comfort."

Under conditions for which the same room temperature is maintained by a heating or cooling system, it is not uncommon for a person to feel chilled in the winter but comfortable in the summer.Consider a room whose air temperature is maintained at 18ºC throughout the year, while the walls of the room are nominally at 24°C and 14°C in the summer and winter, respectively. The exposed surface of a person in the room may be assumed to be at a temperature of 32°C throughout the year and to have an emissivity of 0.90. The coefficient associated with heat transfer by natural convection between the person and the room air is approximately 2 W/m2·K.
Calculate the following.
a. heat flux due to convection in W / m^2
b. Heat flux due to radiation in the summer in W / m^2
c. Heat flux due to radiation in the winter in W / m^2
