Application of Heat-Transfer Calculations and Computational Fluid Mechanics to the Design of Protective Clothing

  • Published:
Journal of Engineering Physics and Thermophysics Aims and scope

Three examples of use of computational fluid dynamics for designing clothing protecting a human body from high and low temperatures with an incident air fl ow and without it are presented. The internal thermodynamics of a human body and the interaction of it with the surroundings were investigated. The inner and outer problems were considered separately with their own boundary conditions.
