Testing Principle
The Seat Thermal Manikin simulates human heat and sweat secretion through eight independent thermal zones and skin analog systems. DHS sensors directly measure instantaneous energy exchange between the seat surface and the manikin skin. For heated or ventilated seats, active cooling prevents local overheating, ensuring reliable and accurate measurements. Software calculates thermal comfort indices and energy transfer efficiency using combined heat flux, temperature, and humidity data.
Test Procedure
Place the thermal manikin on the test seat, ensuring correct H-point positioning.
Set target temperatures and sweat distribution for each thermal zone according to standards or test requirements.
Start the control software and select the testing mode:
Passive seat: Constant temperature heat flux measurement
Heated seat: Heat flux and sweat measurement simultaneously
Ventilated seat: Heat flux, humidity, and airflow measurement simultaneously
The system automatically records heat flux, temperature, and humidity, generating time-history curves.
Analyze data and generate a thermal comfort report (including heat balance, local comfort, and humidity distribution).
Perform system self-check after completion, disconnect power and cooling, and clean the equipment.
