Abstract
Outdoor thermal comfort is known to be influenced by adaptations, which leads to different outdoor thermal environment preferences due to climate change by locations. This paper compared the reactions to outdoor thermal environment between local people and tourist in winter in Harbin, which locates in typical severely cold climate zone in China. It was found that, in winter, compared with local people, the thermal comfort vote (TCV) of tourist is more sensitive to thermal sensation vote (TSV), and the satisfaction vote (TSaV) of local people is more sensitive to thermal comfort vote (TCV), which means that, for tourists in Harbin in winter, the change of thermal sensation will strongly influence people's thermal comfort, but the satisfaction vote to the environment will stay in a high level range, and the local people react against that. For the local people, the satisfaction vote (TSaV) and thermal sensation vote (TSV) shows a liner positive relationship, and for the tourists, the satisfaction vote (TSaV) and thermal sensation vote (TSV) shows a quadric relationship, and when TSV equals to -2 (cool), the TSaV of tourists get a peak value, which should be due to people's travel expectations to Harbin climate.
