OPTIMAL DESIGN OF COMPLEX HUMAN ENVIRONMENT BY INVERSE RADIATIVE METHOD

摘要

This work investigates inverse boundary design for radiative heat transfer applied to human thermal environment. The objective consists of finding the temperatures and the optimal number of the surrounding surfaces that provide both the temperature and the radiative heat flux prescribed on the human body. This problem is described by an ill-conditioned system of linear equations based on the absorption factors model. A solution is obtained by regularizing the system of equations by means of the Tikhonov method. As a result we obtain both optimized solutions and configuration for a complex human thermal system.
