Analysis of LCG Thermal Performance and Control

The use of the Wissler Human Thermoregulation model has been demonstrated for various aspects of the design of liquid cooling garment (LCG) temperature control. Thermal performance of the LCG under various conditions and the simulation of control schemes have been studied. The benefits of the study arise during the design of an automatic control scheme for the LCG when numerous control algorithms and scenarios can be evaluated without costly and time-consuming experimentation.
