Hexagon: Development of Thermoregulation JOS capability
Takao Itami at Hexagon shares the story behind the development of Cradle CFD's JOS human comfort model.
Hexagon’s SC/Tetra thermo-fluid analysis software includes the JOS function which is used to simulate and analyse human body skin surface temperature and quantity of perspiration. SC/Tetra divides a model of the human body into 17 segments and simulates the morphological and physiological characteristics and thermoregulation function of each segment by solving heat balance equations. “The comfort of human beings will vary depending on the environment. SC/Tetra can be used to analyse the human response which will help engineers design better products,” says Mr. Itami, the developer of the JOS. In this article, Mr. Itami tells the story behind the development of the JOS function in SC/Tetra.
