The three files include Temperature (°C) Relative Humidity (%), Intensity (Lux) and Dew Point (°C) data monitored in two bedrooms and the lounge of the case study building located in Bengaluru, Karnataka, India. Data was gathered from 15 Feb 2022 to 15 May 2022 using Onset HOBO U12-011 data loggers. The case study building is an intermediate floor, occupied, naturally ventilated apartment on the 6th floor of a seven storey building. The apartment has two occupants. The Lounge has a front door and no external windows. Bedroom1 has one external wall with one window facing East. Bedroom2 has two external walls with a window on each, one facing East and the other facing North. The temperature and RH data were used to evaluate thermal comfort in the case study building. The data was also used to validate the hygrothermal model of the case study building created using WUFI Plus.
