This paper investigates thermal sensation in an air conditioned space with and without a water source such as a water pond and small fountain in Thailand. Questionnaires were collected from experiments involving 140 subjects divided into groups of 6-14 people sitting in controlled rooms of sequences of air velocity with and without a water source.
