Skin Burn Translation Model for Evaluating Hand Protection in Flash Fire Exposures

Hummel, A., Barker, R., & Lyons, K. (2013, April 15). Fire Technology.

By: A. Hummel n, R. Barker n & K. Lyons n

author keywords: Burn injury prediction modeling; Human skin burns; Flame protection; Thermal protection; Protective clothing; Instrumented manikin fire test systems
topics (OpenAlex): Thermoregulation and physiological responses; Climate Change and Health Impacts; Occupational Health and Performance
TL;DR: A model is described for use in translating measured heat flux to predict second and third degree hand burn injury in fire exposures to facilitate more accurate prediction of burns to human hands by accounting for the cylindrical geometry of the fingers, bone tissue beneath the skin, and different skin thickness data that represents the different areas of the hand.
