Condition Equation y = PD
x = Top/SET*
Acceptable temperature range (°C) Comfort temperature range (°C)
Without masks y = 2.2063x2 - 115.97x + 1529.3 (Top) 23.7–28.9 24.8–27.7
y = 1.3999x2 - 72.662x + 949.41 (SET*) 22.8–29.0 24.4–27.6
With masks y = 2.0164x2 - 104.28x + 1355 (Top) 23.3–28.4 24.6–27.1
