PURPOSE:To correctly grasp a practical effective-temperature corresponding to the quantity of clothes of a user, by detecting an effective temperature taking account of air temperature, flux of air flow, and radiation of an indoor environment together with the quantity of clothes of a user as well by means of a thermo-detecting element. CONSTITUTION:In a thermo-detecting element A, the surface temperature Tg of a heating element 1 to which predetermined quantity of heat is supplied by means of a thermocouple 7 is detected, where said surface temperature Tg is a function of air temperature, flux of air flow, and radiation. And by operating a setting device for quantity of clothes 9 provided with a setting device for clothes 9a and a setting device for bedclothes 9b, thermal resistance Clo corresponding to the quantity of clothes of the human body is set. And, on the basis of said surface temperature Tg of the heating element 1 and the thermal resistance Clo depending on the quantity of clothes, an effective temperature (y) is computed by the equation y=Tg+6.03XClo-10.85; therefore, said effective temperature (y) is dependent on air temperature, flux of air flow, radiation, and quantity of clothes. By the use of said effective temperature (y), an air conditioner is controlled.
