Abstract
⺠Temperatures in hospital wards with a hybrid ventilation strategy are measured. ⺠The BSEN15251 thermal comfort standard provides a framework for assessing thermal comfort. ⺠Likely temperatures in typical and thermally extreme current and future climates are predicted. ⺠Fans may substantially improve resilience to climate change even in thermally extreme years. ⺠The methodology can be used to assess the thermal resilience of other free-running building types.
