A literature study on change of surperficial temperature

체표 온도 변화에 대한 문헌 고찰

Object: A study on the changes of superficial temperature as the ambient temperature varies. Method: After performing research on the physiologic mechanism of heat loss from skin, heat transfer to skin and heat productions of body, the conclusions would be drawn from experiments on temperature changes in every parts of the body as ambient temperature varies . Result and conclusion: Superficial temperature is in equilibrium with ambient temperature after a certain period. Part of the body with big change in superficial temperature tends to have slower temperature change and longer time for adaptation than the part with small change in superficial temperature. The temperature difference between left and right side of the body needs no attention. If adequate adaptation time, a short-period living supervision prior to measurements and appropriate indoor environment management are provided, meaningful conclusion would be attained for infrared thermal diagnosis.
