AB - In order to improve the design effect of venues, this paper establishes the  evaluation model of indoor thermal comfort for the humid and hot  subtropical areas, which provides theoretical reference for venue design.  This paper investigates the thermal sensation of basketball players by  questionnaire, analyzes the relation-ship between thermal sensation vote and  standard effective temperature, predicted mean vote, and wet bulb globe  temperature, and develops an index called predicted thermal sensation by  using the least square method. The relationship between outdoor air  temperature and indoor working temperature under neutral conditions is  obtained by measuring data. The results show that the correlation between  thermal sensation vote and air temperature is the strongest, R2 is 0.753,  while the relationship between thermal sensation vote and air speed is weak,  R2 is 0.012. Thermal sensation vote and set, predicted mean vote and wet  bulb globe temperature are not suitable for athletes in the field  environment.
