Temperature distribution in cylindrical regions of human body incorporating effect of age

摘要

The drive of the current study is to present a mathematical model about the effect of age on temperature distribution in cylindrical regions of Human body. The model has been developed for one dimensional steady state case. The model includes other processes contributing significantly towards thermo-regulation which include perfusion of blood from body core to the peripheral tissues and the tissue metabolic heat generation. The superficial surface of the body is assumed to be exposed to the environment and heat loss takes place by conduction, convection, radiation, and evaporation. Appropriate boundary conditions have been outlined. The finite element method is used to find the results and conclusion.
