Development of a calorimetric sensor for medical application: Part III. Operating methods and applications

摘要

A calorimetric sensor has been developed for local and direct measurement of calorific dissipations in different parts of the human body. The constructed prototype has a detection surface of 36 cm~2. In this part III, it is proposed that the methodology to be used, a sequence in the programing of the measures and a calculation method. Finally, it is showing some experimental results that will be always associated to the programed thermostat temperature. Measures in the zone of the right hypochondrium are carried out in an adult male subject for different thermostat temperatures, resulting in a dissipation of 1.144 W for 27 C and 0.800 W for 30 C on a surface of 36 cm~2.
