<div> </div><div>If the 'radiating object' is close to a person and the location of the person in the zone is thus clearly defined, his/her actual thermal sensation will be influenced by the radiating object in case it is large enough or the temperature is high enough.</div>
<div> </div><div>However, the added value of a detailed calculation is limited in case the real life scenario would be one where furniture is blocking the viewfactors between radiating object and person.</div><div> </div>
