The Effect of Surface Coating on Thermal Manikin’s Stability
Abstract:
Present thermal manikin is always enclosed by hard materials, and not covered with surface coating. So the surface condition of thermal manikin is very different with real body, which reduces thermal manikin’s stability. Therefore the research on thermal manikin’s surface coating and its effect on thermal manikin’s stability are necessary. In this paper, an appropriate material was selected to be thermal manikin’s surface coating and the satisfying result in improving the stability of thermal manikin was achieved. Firstly, five kinds of soft materials were selected to be candidate surface coating materials, which were EVA, HTV, TPU, medical used silicon rubber and cotton fabric. By lots of experiments and fuzzy mathematics theory, HTV was analyzed to have satisfying optimization performance than other materials and can be used as thermal manikin’s surface coating. Finally, to evaluate the effect of HTV surface coating on thermal manikin’s stability, comparative experiments were performed in climate chamber when thermal manikin covered with HTV surface coating and did not cover with HTV surface coating. Results show that HTV surface coating can obviously improve the stability of thermal manikin.
