RP-1262 — Relate Air Quality and Other Factors to Comfort and Health Symptoms Reported by Passengers and Crew on Commercial Transport Aircraft (Part 2)
- Comments Off on RP-1262 — Relate Air Quality and Other Factors to Comfort and Health Symptoms Reported by Passengers and Crew on Commercial Transport Aircraft (Part 2)
- ASHRAE
This study is part of an ASHRAE program aimed at investigating the potential link between perceived health symptoms and discomfort on one hand, and aircraft cabin environmental conditions and human factors on the other. Such data were called for in the NRC report to Congress (2002), and are needed to support ASHRAE’s standard setting process. Part I of the project has used the results from past studies and a literature review to guide the development of a measurement system and protocol, and a survey tool. These tools were then pilot tested and validated on four commercial aircraft flights. Part II, which will be under separate contract, will utilize the validated measurement and survey tools to collect data on a statistical sample of aircraft types and routings, and relate the health and comfort survey results from passengers and crew to the air quality and environmental variables observed.
