Abstract
The Manikin is a kind of standard measuring equipment that has gradually become the clothing ergonomics and environmental thermal comfort evaluation field indispensable tool. The Manikin is a heat exchange device of stable environment design, so the control model mainly by constant temperature and constant heat flux and the CE model can not reflect the characteristics of human thermal regulation. Therefore, it is difficult to apply to individual protective equipment (PPE) thermal function test. In order to realize the continuous time manikin to the changes of the environment stress adjustment process. This article carries on the transformation to a dry state manikin crus model, the human bioheat equation simplified improved prediction model, and combined with thermal manikin. In order to validate the model, we selected four subjects in a continuous heating environment (27–33 °C) in each of the two groups of tests, and compared with the predicted results. And the results showed that the average temperature change curve of human skin was consistent with the calculated results.
