Abstract

AbstractThe problem discussed in the paper is numerical modeling of thermal processes in the domain of biological tissue secured by a layer of protective clothing being in thermal contact with the environment. The cross-section of the forearm (2D problem) is treated as non-homogeneous domain in which the sub-domains of skin tissue, fat, muscle and bone are distinguished. The air gap between skin tissue and protective clothing is taken into account. The process of external heating is determined by Robin boundary condition and sensitivity analysis with respect to the perturbations of heat transfer coefficient and ambient temperature is also discussed. Both the basic boundary-initial problem and the sensitivity problems are solved by means of control volume method using Voronoi polygons.
