Comfort Diagrams#
Comfort diagrams visualize indoor climate conditions and assess whether they meet comfort standards. These plots are essential for building performance evaluation.
Recipes#
Temperature vs. Humidity — Scatter plot of indoor temperature and humidity with comfort zone overlay
Temperature & Humidity Over Time — Stacked time series with the comfort target band plus moderate and severe warning limits
Mollier h-x Diagram — Psychrometric chart showing the relationship between temperature, humidity, and enthalpy, with warning bands and the outside air with its ventilation line
Comfort Donut — Share of time temperature and humidity spend below / within / above the comfort band
Comfort Compass — Area-true polar glyph of the days spent in each comfort state and severity stage
SIA 180 Adaptive Comfort — Evaluate indoor temperatures against the SIA 180:2014 adaptive comfort model

Two short pyedautils guides explain how to read the h-x diagram and the comfort compass, what the comfort zone means and how to save energy, with worked examples.
