Title: | An approach to the modelling of a virtual thermal manikin | Authors: | Ružić, Dragan Bikić, Siniša |
Issue Date: | 1-Jan-2014 | Journal: | Thermal Science | Abstract: | The aim of the research described in this paper, is to make a virtual thermal manikin that would be simple, but also robust and reliable. The virtual thermal manikin was made in order to investigate thermal conditions inside vehicle cabins. The main parameters of the presented numerical model that were investigated in this paper are mesh characteristics and turbulence models. Heat fluxes on the manikin's body segments obtained from the simulations were compared with published results, from three different experiments done on physical thermal manikins. The presented virtual thermal manikin, meshed with surface elements of 0.035 m in nominal size (around 13,600 surface elements) and in conjunction with the two-layer RANS Realizable k-ε turbulence model, had generally good agreement with experimental data in both forced and natural flow conditions. | URI: | https://open.uns.ac.rs/handle/123456789/7372 | ISSN: | 3549836 | DOI: | 10.2298/TSCI130115115R |
