Overview

Model analyzes athlete body heat recovery, finding high efficiency and low error rates, indicating potential for improved energy reuse.

Key Points

  • This research aims to develop a model for an athlete’s body heat recovery and reuse system to enhance energy efficiency during exercise.
  • Constructed a model with layers for heat capture, transmission, storage, and conversion.
  • Used ANSYS FLUENT for simulations at varying exercise intensities.
  • Compared simulation results with experimental data for validation.
  • Experimental heat storage efficiency under moderate intensity was 82.3%, with a simulated value of 84.1%.
  • Heat loss curves matched simulations by 96%.
  • High intensity exercise showed experimental entropy production at 0.0085 J/Ks, simulated at 0.0089 J/Ks.
  • Efficiency ranged from 89% to 91.5% in heating mode at moderate-high intensities.
  • Errors in experimental and simulation results were both within 8%, validating the model.
