Journal ArticleDOI
A computer model of human thermoregulation for a wide range of environmental conditions: the passive system.
TL;DR: A dynamic model predicting human thermal responses in cold, cool, neutral, warm, and hot environments is presented in a two-part study.
Journal ArticleDOI
Computer prediction of human thermoregulatory and temperature responses to a wide range of environmental conditions
TL;DR: Good general agreement with measured data was obtained for regulatory responses, internal temperatures, and the mean and local skin temperatures of unacclimatised humans for the whole spectrum of climatic conditions and for different activity levels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Deriving the operational procedure for the Universal Thermal Climate Index (UTCI).
Peter Bröde,Dusan Fiala,Krzysztof Błażejczyk,Ingvar Holmér,Gerd Jendritzky,Bernhard Kampmann,Birger Tinz,George Havenith +7 more
TL;DR: The analyses of the sensitivity of UTCI to humidity, radiation and wind speed showed plausible reactions in the heat as well as in the cold, and indicate that UTCI may in this regard be universally useable in the major areas of research and application in human biometeorology.
Journal ArticleDOI
UTCI-Fiala multi-node model of human heat transfer and temperature regulation.
TL;DR: An overview of the underlying algorithms and methods that constitute the multi-node dynamic UTCI-Fiala model of human thermal physiology and comfort are provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
An introduction to the Universal Thermal Climate Index (UTCI)
Krzysztof Błażejczyk,Gerd Jendritzky,Peter Bröde,Dusan Fiala,George Havenith,Yoram Epstein,Agnieszka Psikuta,Bernhard Kampmann +7 more
TL;DR: The Universal Thermal Climate Index ( UTCI) as discussed by the authors is derived from the Fiala multi-node model of human heat balance and is defined as the air temperature (Ta) of the reference condition causing the same model response as actual conditions.
