Summary, in English
The combined thermal effects of convection, radiation and conduction in a vehicle
compartment need special measuring equipment accounting for spatial and temporalvariations in the driver space. The most sophisticated equipment measures local heat fluxes at defined spots or areas of a man-shaped manikin. By calibration of segment heat fluxes with thermal sensation votes of panel of subjects, manikin data can be used as a design tool for evaluation of the quality of the thermal environment.
