The Seat Thermal Manikin is designed to evaluate thermal comfort and humidity management performance of automotive, truck, office, and aircraft seats. Developed based on the SAE J826 HPM-II anthropomorphic model, it is compatible with existing automotive seat H-point measurement methods. For passive seats, it precisely measures heat and moisture exchange. For heated or ventilated seats, it evaluates actual energy transfer rather than surface temperature alone, while accounting for realistic sweat levels, ensuring accurate measurement.
Application
Automotive seat thermal comfort and humidity management testing
Truck seat heat performance evaluation
Office chair long-term comfort and heat dissipation testing
Aircraft seat thermal comfort and cooling/ventilation performance assessment
Heated seat performance testing
Seat material thermal conductivity verification
Automotive seat design and ergonomic research
Passenger environment thermal comfort optimization and HVAC system evaluation
Standards
GB/T 18830-2009: Test methods for automotive seat and backrest thermal comfort
SAE J826: Human engineering H-point measurement standard
ISO 14505-2: Seat thermal comfort testing — Thermal manikin method
ISO 12894: Anthropometry and application of human models
ISO 9920: Clothing, personal protective equipment, and seat thermal comfort assessment
ASTM F1291: Standard method for evaluating thermal comfort using thermal manikins
ASTM F2370: Measurement of seat heat/cooling energy and humidity transfer
EN 12127: Automotive seat heat flux and pressure distribution measurement
Note: Some standards apply to overall seat thermal comfort evaluation, while others relate specifically to heat flux, humidity, or heated/ventilated seat energy transfer.
