Hi @NassimJ

I have carried out Thermal comfort calculations for BREEAM requirements using Desing Builder.

You have to carry out taking into account UNE EN ISO 7730:2006. You have to calculate the PMV and PPD levels for all conditioned zones of the building evaluated. And to demostrate that values obtained are compliance wtih category B of UNE ISO 7730.

Design Builder can calculate Fanger PMV without problems. You can see the following documentation: http://www.designbuilder.co.uk/helpv4.7/#Thermal_Comfort.htm
