Under conditions for which the same room temperature is maintained by a heating or cooling system, it is not uncommon for a person to feel chilled in the winter but comfortable in the summer. Provide a plausible explanation for this situation (with supporting calculations) by considering a room whose air temperature is maintained at 20 ℃ throughout the year, while the walls of the room are nominally at 27 ℃ and 14 ℃ in the summer and winter, respectively. The exposed surface of a person in the room may be assumed to be at a temperature of 32 ℃ throughout the year and to have an emissivity of 0.90. The coefficient associated with heat transfer by natural convection between the person and the room air is approximately 2 W/m2∙K.
