실내 쾌적 온열환경 예측을 위한 한국인 남성 인체생리모형개발에 관한 연구

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to develop a Korean model for assessing human physiology and thermal comfort. The model allows calculating the local skin temperature of each body segments and predicting the thermal sensation of occupants in indoor environment. In previous study, 2-30 years old and 4-50 years old of Korea men were modeled using the data which were gathered from Size Korea. These models were improved to fit the Korean body type. In order to calculate the surface area of the models, the surface area of each segment was calculated according to the formula of Dubois. And the Stolwijk's study was used to calculate the mass of 16 segments to model a Korean men body. We compared the previous models with new version ones and predicted local skin temperature in two environmental conditions.
