Prediction of skin and clothing temperatures under thermal transient considering moisture accumulation in clothing.

Author(s) : UMENO T., HOKOI S., TAKADA S.

Summary

In order to clarify the physiological response of the human body under a transient situation (i.e. a clothed person wet with sweat enters an air-conditioned room) laboratory experiments were conducted. An analytical model is proposed that simulates the physiological thermal-regulating process based on the revised two-node model, combined with the moisture balance equation for the clothing.
