Abstract (EN): In order to guarantee the reliability of the results, the methodology used along the recollection of data is not indifferent. This research work aims at verifying if, in closed spaces inside a paper plant, there are significant variations of the thermal environment due to the criteria variation of the gathering data. With this purpose in mind, measurements were made during a work shift in various places, and we arrived at the conclusion that even in apparently stable atmospheres there may be significant variations in thermal comfort.
