Development of Prediction Computer Program of Whole Body Temperatures Expressing Local Characteristic of Each Segment : Part 3-A Comparison of Experimental and Calculated Results of Body Temperatures

Abstract

We have been developing a prediction computer program of whole body temperatures expressing local characteristics of each segment in order to apply to making a precise evaluation and control of indoor thermal environment. We carried out the subjective experiments measuring total metabolic rate, core, and sink temperatures anf thermal environmental parameters under six kinds of thermal environmental condition. This paper describes the validity of our prediction computer program in comparison with experimental results.
