Applicability of Human Thermophysiological Model for Prediction of Thermal strain in PPE
Original language description
Presentation on 10th European Conference on Protective Clothing, May 9-12 2023, Arnhem, The Netherlands – Use of personal protective equipment (PPE) is an essential way how to protect the human body in hazardous environment with the risk of CBRN agents. On the other hand, the PPE poses a barrier to evaporative heat dissipation, therefore, increasing the body heat accumulation. In our research we pursued a relationship between the thermal-insulation characteristics of four types of PPE against CBRN agents and the induced thermal strain in set of real strain tests with human probands wearing PPE in a climatic chamber. Based on the results, we compared two thermophysiological models – Predicted Heat Strain Index (PHS) and Fiala-based model of thermal comfort (FMTK) with the experimental data. Then we developed a user-friendly computational tool Predictor of the Thermal Stress (PTS) for estimation of thermal stress in PPE.
