Abstract
An improved procedure is presented for the calculation of detailed steady‐state temperature distributions throughout the human body. The efficacy of the proposed computation procedure is demonstrated by comparison of calculated and experimental results for seven studies conducted on four subjects. Core temperatures were predicted within ±0.2°C and deviations for individual skin temperatures generally were within ±0.5°C.Keywords
