description Thermal comfort in outdoor spaces is an essential characteristic for the urban environment quality; in addition, it can significantly influence the performance, well-being, comfort and thermal sensation of people. Therefore, the design of outdoor spaces must consider the thermal comfort ranges in response to the environment conditions in order to promote their frequent and healthy use. The main objective of this work was to estimate the thermal comfort ranges for outdoor public spaces from the adaptive approach and each of the physical variables of the thermal environment. The study was carried out in Ensenada city during the warm period. The evaluations, questionnaire and physical measurement instruments attended what is suggested in the ANSI/ASHRAE 55, ISO 10551 and ISO 7726. The analysis was carried out with the correlation of the registered physical variables and the perceived thermal sensation from two univariate statistical methods: Averages by Thermal Sensation Intervals and Simple Linear Regression. The comfort ranges for the temperature were 19,2 to 25,1 °C and 20,1 to 23,8 °C; for relative humidity were 54,3 to 83,6 % and from 0,01 to 99,9 %; and, for wind speed were 0,1 to 2,6 m/s and 0,1 to 5,9 m/s, respectively. The values obtained with the first analysis method showed greater consistency with respect to the real evaluation conditions.

El confort térmico en espacios exteriores es una de las características esenciales de la calidad del medio ambiente urbano; además, puede influir significativamente en el desempeño, el bienestar, el confort y la sensación térmica de las personas. Por ello, en el diseño de los espacios exteriores se deben considerar los índices térmicos de confortabilidad como respuesta a las condiciones climatológicas del entorno en aras de promover su uso frecuente y saludable. El objetivo de esta investigación fue estimar, a partir del enfoque adaptativo, los rangos de confort térmico para espacios públicos exteriores a partir de cada una de las variables físicas del entorno térmico. El estudio se desarrolló en la ciudad de Ensenada durante el periodo cálido. La aplicación de evaluaciones, el diseño del cuestionario y el empleo de instrumentos de medición física, se realizaron a partir de la ANSI/ASHRAE 55, ISO 10551 e ISO 7726. La estimación se realizó con la correlación de las variables físicas registradas y la sensación térmica percibida a partir de dos métodos estadísticos univariables: Medias por Intervalos de Sensación Térmica y Regresión Lineal Simple. Los rangos de confort para la temperatura fueron de 19,2 a 25,1 °C y de 20,1 a 23,8 °C; para la humedad relativa, de 54,3 a 83,6 % y de 0,01 a 99,9 %; y, para la velocidad de viento, de 0,1 a 2,6 m/s y de 0,1 a 5,9 m/s, respectivamente. La estimación obtenida con el primer método de análisis ofreció mayor consistencia respecto a las condiciones reales de evaluación.
