Özet

This research was carried out in the city of Erzurum, which is located on a highland above 1800m in East Anatolia Region of Turkey [1]. In the stidy, the effects and perception patterns of cold stress on people tried to be determined through a questionnaire survey, which was conducted in a densely used commercial and recreative area of the city occupied with cafes and restaurants. In addition to survey results, Physiologically Equivalent Temperature (PET) values were calculated using RayMan Model and meteorological values measured near the survey point to compare present comfort ranges and thermal perception of people surveyed. PET values obtained were matched with the comfort levels of the individuals and the relationship between these values tried to be determined. As a result of the study, it was found that all comfort intervals are different, sunlight directly affects the comfort value, and the perceived and calculated PET values are different. As a result of the study, it was concluded that with the improvement of thermal comfort conditions of people outdoor they prefer to use outdoor spaces longer.
