Abstract
The human thermoregulation model COM (Complex Thermal Environment Comfort Model) was developed, incorporating the blood flow model for extremities and the conductive heat transfer model at contacting skin surfaces. The whole body model has 17 body segments, each consisting of 2 compartments for core and skin. Each core compartment of extremities has artery and vein blood pool in its center. The central blood compartment exchanges heat with blood pools and the tissues except extremities. The heat balance equations for each tissue are described. The current model is able to predict fairly well for the body temperature distribution under unsteady state conditions.
