Psychrometric charts showing the human comfort index of adults. Data modelled for houses with metal, red and white roofs during three different intervals of the day. Where A night first part (21:00–23:30 h), B night second part (00:00–07:00 h) and C day time (07.00–20:30 h). Each data point represents a combination of dry-bulb temperature and relative humidity recorded by indoor loggers. Recordings made within the black polygons represent values that are comfortable. Values in red are the percentage of readings that are classified as comfortable
