Numerical investigation of the convective heat transfer coefficient of the human body using a representative cylindrical model

The principal objective of this study is to investigate, develop and verify a framework for determining the convective heat transfer co-efficient from a cylindrical model that can easily be adaptable to more complex geometry - more specifically the human body geometry. Analysis of the model under fo...
