Present comfort study reveals effect of thermal adaptation in composite climate. Neutral temperature found was 27.5 °C on air temperature and 26.4 °C on SET* approach. Thermal acceptability for 80% on air temperature approach was 23.89–28.01 °C. Whereas, thermal acceptability for 80% on SET* approach was between 23.42 and 26.56 °C. Study suggests analysing comfort based on SET* approach over operative temperature.
