Abstract

This paper considers the effects of thermogenesis parameters and biot numbers on the temperature of the human head. A non heat conduction model was considered for this work and its solution was graphically analysed .The results show that when the thermogenesis heat parameter is zero, then the temperature of the human head is at set point. Also, an increase in the thermogenesis heat or metabolic parameters may lead to an increase in the temperature of the human head. Moreover, the temperature of the human head is higher at the core and decreases transversely with minimum value at the periphery. The results also show that the temperature of the human head increases or decreases as the biot number decreases or increases with increase or decrease in thermogenesis heat parameter.
