This measurementconcept holds U.S. Patent No. 3,878,728 dated April 22, 1975,and was assigned to the USA as represented by the Departmentof Health and Welfare. No known restriction exists

18、to limit thedevelopment of units based upon this principle.4. Summary of Practice4.1 This practice provides two procedures for evaluation ofthe skin contact temperature from heated surfaces. Either of thetwo methods, a mathematical model and a physical measure-ment, can be used depending upon the av

19、ailability of thesystem (that is, is it built and operating or is it in the designstate) and the operating conditions. The first step in using thispractice is to determine which procedure is to be used. Unlessthe system of interest is operating at design “worst case”conditions, such as high system t

20、emperatures and high ambienttemperature, the calculational procedure is recommended. Onthe other hand, if the question is safety at the presentconditions, the thermesthesiometer provides a quick measure-ment with no auxiliary calculations. Paragraphs 4.2 and 4.3outline the two alternative procedures

21、 available.4.2 Calculational Procedure, Method AFirst the surfacetemperature of the insulated system is determined by either adirect measurement, using either thermocouples, thermistors,or infrared noncontact techniques, or by modeling of thesystem using Practice C 680. Once the surface temperature

22、isknown, the designer uses the equation set to estimate themaximum epidermal contact temperature for the acceptablecontact time. This temperature is a function of surface tem-perature, time of contact, and composition of both the surfacematerial and substrate. The designer then refers to GuideC 1055

23、 to determine the burn hazard potential of the surface.4.3 Thermesthesiometer, Method BThe operator placesthe calibrated sensor probe face firmly against the heatedsurface for the acceptable contact time. The device directlyreads the contact temperature from the probe. The maximumtemperature is used

24、 in conjunction with the Guide C 1055 todetermine the burn hazard potential of the surface.5. Significance and Use5.1 The procedures in this practice support the determina-tion of the burn hazard potential for a heated surface. Theseprocedures provide an estimate of the maximum skin contacttemperatu

25、re and must be used in conjunction with GuideC 1055 to evaluate the surface hazard potential.5.2 The two procedures outlined herein are both based uponthe same heat transfer principles. Method A uses a mathemati-cal model to predict the contact temperature, while Method Buses a plastic rubber probe

26、having similar heat transfercharacteristics to the human finger to “measure” the contacttemperature on real systems.5.3 These procedures serve as an estimate for the skincontact temperatures which might occur for the “average”individual. Unusual conditions of exposure, incorrect designassumptions, s

27、ubject health conditions, or unforeseen operatingconditions may negate the validity of the estimations.5.4 These procedures are limited to direct contact exposureonly. Conditions of personal exposure to periods of highambient temperatures, direct flame exposure, or high radiantfluxes may cause human

28、 injury in periods other than deter-mined herein. Evaluation of exposures other than direct contactare beyond the scope of this practice.5.5 Cold Surface ExposureNo consensus criteria existsfor the destruction of skin cells by freezing. If, at some futuretime, such criteria are developed, extrapolat

29、ion of the tech-niques presented here will serve as a basis for cold surfaceexposure evaluation.6. Method AUse of the Mathematical Model6.1 This modeling approach is for use when the system isbeing designed or, if for some reason, it cannot be operated atdesign conditions. The model approximates the

30、 transient heatflow phenomena of the skin contacting a hot surface using theequation set described by Dussan (1) and Wu (5). The user isrequired to make certain definitions of system geometry andmaterials, the system operating conditions, and the allowabletime of exposure. After definition of the in

31、put values, theequation set yields an estimate of the skin contact temperatureneeded for the hazard evaluation. The user must realize that aswith all mathematical approximations, the estimate is only asgood as the input data. Where some input parameter is knownonly within some range of values, a sen

32、sitivity analysis aboutthat range is recommended.6.2 The first step in estimating the effective skin contacttemperature is to identify and record the following informationdescribing the system as input for the model:6.2.1 System DescriptionGeometry, location, accessibil-ity.6.2.2 Present/Design Oper

33、ating ConditionsDuty cycle,operating temperatures of equipment.6.2.3 System/Surface Data (as appropriate)Substrate (in-sulation) type and thickness, jacket type and thickness, surfaceproperties, such as emissivity and condition, shiny, painted,dirty, corroded.6.2.4 Ambient Conditions, including dry

34、bulb temperatureand local wind velocity.NOTE 2The design temperatures should be at the worst case (gener-ally high operating and high ambient) conditions. Care should be used inthe selection of design conditions since the hazard design conditions aredifferent from the heat loss design conditions.6.3

35、 Using Practice C 680 or a compatible program and theinformation gathered in 6.2, calculate the maximum operatingsurface temperature. This temperature is an input to the modelfor the contact temperature.6.3.1 Where the system is operating at design conditions,direct measurement can be used to determ

36、ine the surfacetemperature. Thermocouples, resistance thermometers, or othermeans can be used; however, proper application techniques arerequired for accurate results. Caution must be observed sincethe surface temperature may be high and the surface couldconstitute a burn hazard.6.4 Calculate the ex

37、pected skin contact temperature versustime history using the procedure below based upon the hotsurface temperature, time of contact, and system properties.C1057032The development of the equations below is taken from Dussan(1). A more detailed derivation of the equation set used isincluded in the pap

38、ers by Dussan (1) and Wu (5). See Fig. 1.6.4.1 Calculate the initial parameter constants, using Eq4-11.6.4.2 The contact temperature for the skin can now bedetermined using Eq 1, Eq 2, and Eq 3 together for the systemin question. Note that the solution to this equation is a sum ofan infinite series.

39、 The solution, however, converges quickly(five or six terms) and can be easily handled manually or by asmall computer.Tc5 T01 A(N 5 0INerfc uN! 1 B(N 5 0INerfc u8N!

45、roblemAssume a heated system is to be insulatedwith light density fibrous glass. Jacketing material choicesavailable include: (1) aluminum at 0.4 mm thickness and (2)glass cloth at 1.0 mm thickness. Also assume that the skindepth of interest is 0.008 cm and the initial skin temperature is33C. The qu

46、estion is: What would be the maximum expectedcontact skin temperature for each jacket material at the desiredFIG. 1 Schematic of Heat Transfer ModelC1057033depth for an exposure of 10 s, if the operating jacket surfacetemperature is 150C?6.6.2 ResultIn 10 s of exposure the equations abovepredict a s

47、kin temperature at 0.008 cm of approximately50.2C for the aluminum jacket and approximately 40.3C forthe glass cloth jacket. See Fig. 2 for the time/temperaturehistories.7. Method BUse of the Thermethesiometer7.1 The thermesthesiometer approach is for use where thesystem is operating at the desired

48、design conditions or whenevaluation of an existing condition is desired. The thermesthe-siometer provides an electrical analogue of the fingers thermalresponse when placed against a heated surface. Since the use ofthis device requires some technique, the user should have someexperience on known syst

49、ems as practice before examiningunknown surfaces. Repeating a procedure similar to the cali-bration on other surface geometries is one method of obtainingthis needed training.7.2 The initial step in the measurement of the effective skincontact temperature using the thermesthesiometer is to identifyand record the following information describing the system tobe analyzed:7.2.1 System DescriptionGeometry, location, accessibil-ity.7.2.2 Present Operational ConditionsDuty cycle, systemoperating temperatures.7.2
