The 16-Segment Heated Thermal Manikin (Dry Type) is a precision anthropomorphic measurement system designed to simulate human body heat under controlled environmental conditions. By reproducing realistic human surface temperature distribution without breathing or sweating functions, the system provides reliable thermal response data for evaluating clothing insulation, indoor environments, HVAC airflow performance, and protective equipment. It is suitable for laboratory testing, academic research, and engineering verification where stable and repeatable human-equivalent heat output is required.
The 16-Segment Heated Thermal Manikin is used in the following application areas:
(1) Cleanroom airflow evaluation and contamination risk assessment
(2) HVAC research, teaching, and indoor thermal comfort studies
(3) Thermal insulation testing of workwear, protective clothing, and medical garments
(4) Simulation of human heat sources in vehicle interiors, buses, trains, ships, and submarines
(5) Aircraft, spacecraft, and cabin thermal environment studies
(6) Hospital operating room temperature control and patient thermal protection testing
(7) Occupational safety and thermal stress evaluation in controlled environments
The system is designed and manufactured with reference to the following international and national standards:
(1) ISO 14644-1 / ISO 14644-3 – Cleanrooms and associated controlled environments
(2) DIN 1946-4 – Ventilation and air-conditioning systems in healthcare facilities
(3) ISO 14505-2 – Determination of thermal insulation using a thermal manikin (analogous method)
(4) ASTM F1291 – Thermal insulation of clothing using a heated manikin
(5) EN 14058 – Protective clothing against cool environments (reference testing)
(6) GB/T 18883-2020 – Indoor air quality standard
(7) GB/T 50785-2012 – Cleanroom design and testing for hospitals
(8) GB 50333-2013 – Technical code for hospital HVAC system design
(9) GB/T 4249-2019 – Indoor thermal environment impact on human body
(10) YY/T 0287-2009 – Thermal performance evaluation of medical protective clothing
