Automotive HVAC Manikin
The Automotive HVAC Manikin is designed to evaluate thermal comfort and air distribution inside automobile, truck, and indoor HVAC environments.
It simulates the thermal response of a seated human occupant, providing accurate data on airflow, temperature, radiant heat, and humidity distribution.
This system is widely used for:
Vehicle heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system design and validation
Passenger comfort optimization in automotive and public transport cabins
Indoor building HVAC testing, including air circulation and comfort assessment
R&D and academic studies on human thermal comfort and airflow dynamics
Standards Compliance
The Automotive HVAC Manikin complies with the following international standards:
ISO 14505-2: Ergonomics of the thermal environment — Evaluation of thermal environments in vehicles
ISO 7726: Instruments for measuring physical quantities of the thermal environment
ASHRAE Standard 55: Thermal Environmental Conditions for Human Occupancy
SAE J2234: Vehicle climate control system performance testing
EN ISO 15831: Clothing — Physiological effects — Measurement of thermal insulation by a thermal manikin

Product Features
Comprehensive Environmental Measurement
Integrated sensors capture air temperature, air velocity, radiant heat flux, and humidity at 46+ points, providing complete cabin climate mapping.
Dual Application
Suitable for both automotive cabin testing and indoor building HVAC systems, enabling cross-industry thermal comfort evaluation.
High Precision & Real-Time Data
ThermDAC software enables real-time PMV/PPD comfort index reporting and statistical data visualization.
Flexible and Modular Design
The manikin disassembles easily at the waist and neck for installation in confined vehicle interiors or building setups.
Realistic Airflow Simulation
Flattened thigh sections and aerodynamic hand shapes ensure airflow around the manikin mimics that of a human occupant.
Wireless and Ethernet Communication
High-speed data transfer ensures stable operation during in-vehicle and laboratory tests.
Fully Jointed Body Structure
Ball-joint connections at shoulders, elbows, hips, knees, and ankles provide adjustable test postures.
Integration Capability
CAD geometry available for CFD and thermal simulation software, enhancing R&D efficiency.
Complete Turnkey System
Delivered with sensors, ThermDAC control software, power supply, laptop PC, and transport chair—ready for immediate use.
