Abstract

In this paper a dynamic three layer model for the heat transfer in the human skin is presented. The model is solved in the Laplace domain using the phasor notation. In order to compare the theoretical model with experimental results, a transient heating was carried out and the time dependent skin temperature was recorded with a thermographic camera. The transient temperature could be fitted very well to an analytical function, which could easily be transformed into the Laplace domain allowing an easy comparison between the model and the experimental results. The aim of the research is to evaluate the skin thermal parameters for all layers including the blood perfusion.
