Assumptions & limits
Assumptions & limits
- Thermal-input explorer through operative temperature; not PMV/PPD, comfort certification or heat-stress assessment. Supported limits: Finite numeric values bounded to 1e9 magnitude; lists and tables contain 1–100 records unless a stricter bound is stated. Inputs use the units shown. Lists explicitly paired by a method must have matching lengths; independent polynomial coefficient vectors may differ. Respect stated physical, interpolation, policy and computational domain limits.
