The core temperature of human body is maintained by the thermoregulation. A viewpoint of the heat transfer phenomena, there are three factors which are internal heat production, heat transfer from internal body to skin surface and heat loss from human body to surrounding environment. The thermoregulatory system works to maintain thermal equilibrium between the heat loss rate and the heat production rate. The human thermal model simulates the thermal state of human body. The conventional human thermal models were built for the thermal comfort evaluation. In this paper, a review of studies in this field of the human thermal model was described.
