摘要：

To be able to predict man's thermal response to any given environment it is essential to have a thorough understanding of man's thermo-regulatory mechanism. The mechanism is dependant on a number of highly non-linear variables. An analogue computer can be of great value with such a problem as non-linear control characteristics are easily incorporated into its programme. The computer is used as a model to reproduce man's thermal behaviour. This paper describes the application of such a computer. A number of tests were made to study some thermal control characteristics and the results are compared with those of a series of experiments performed on two resting subjects who were exposed to various environmental conditions in a climatic chamber. © 1969 Springer-Verlag.
