Heat and Moisture Transfer Computation Model Based on Parallel Simulation in Clothed Human

Heat and moisture transfer simulation of clothed human body is of major interest issues and has important applications in the world. However, the complicated human physiological structure and the dynamic heat and moisture transfer process of clothing system become great challenges in computer modeling and simulating calculation. Around these problems, there are some important research results for references. The simulation performances and numerical computation efficiency still are important problems in this area. In order to obtain the more accurate simulation results in the clothed human body simulation process, radiation factor is considered into simulation model. The experiments show that the simulation results are affected by radiation factor indeed, and the simulation results can predict the radiation effect more efficiency. In order to decrease the numerical calculation cost, based on the analysis the 3D simulation model, the calculate items are designed to satisfy the parallel computation process. A parallel simulation algorithm of the clothed human body based on domain decomposition method is presented in the paper. The simulation results show that the parallel algorithm can decrease the computation time cost efficiently.
