One of the main functions of the buildings is to provide protection from negative environmental effects and to create healthy
and comfortable indoor environments. The thermal comfort conditions of the educational buildings affect students'
attention, focus, perception and learning levels. Solar radiation is one of the most important environmental factors affecting
thermal comfort conditions. The design of transparent areas is important in solar control. It is aimed to make suggestions for
determining and improving thermal comfort conditions in classrooms with different transparency ratios. Classrooms in the
same building (on the 4th and 5 floors) on the university campus, in the same direction (south) and with different
transparency ratios (other volume properties are the same) are determined as study areas. Measurements and surveys were
carried out during a day in heating period. PMV-PPD and AMV-APD data were obtained. The suitability of classrooms to
thermal comfort conditions was evaluated according to the comfort intervals specified in ASHRAE-55 and ISO 7730 standards.
It was determined that there were significant differences in thermal comfort between classrooms and measurement points.
If the transparency ratio is more than necessary, it causes discomfort and unnecessary energy consumption. Suggestions
have been made to ensure solar control and thermal comfort conditions.
