CFD software namely FLUENT was used to simulate the comfort parameter such as temperature and air velocity. Corroboration between results from objective measurement, subjective assessment and CFD modeling was conducted. The results obtained showed that measured temperature and relative humidity were within the standard comfort condition by ISO EN7730 (1994) while air velocity exceeded the standard limit by ISO EN7730 (1994). The overall comfort vote, Predicted Mean Vote (PMV) and Predicted Percentage Dissatisfied (PPD) indices shows that occupants are comfortable and satisfied with the classroom comfort level. In addition, some recommendations were made to improve the comfort level and also to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration built up in the classroom. 2013-05-14T06:10:47Z 2013-05-14T06:10:47Z 2012-03 Article International Review of Mechanical Engineering (IREME), vol. 6 (3), 2012, pages 339-345. 1970 - 8734 http://www.praiseworthyprize.com/IREME-latest/IREME_vol_6_n_3.html http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/25443 en Praise Worthy Prize S.r.l.
