Modeling of non-stationary transfer of heat in the object of general cryotherapeutic influence (WBC)
Annotation
General cryotherapy is a physiotherapy procedure based on intensive hypothermia of the covering tissues of the human body. The purpose of the General cryotherapy is to stimulate the cold threshold receptors of the skin by reducing the surface temperature of the body to the subterminmal temperature –2 °C. In this case, the signals of the skin receptors reach maximum intensity and cause positive shifts in the broad spectrum in the human body. Development of technology for the supercooling of body cryogenic gaseous medium is complicated by ethical requirements. The only method of research in this area is the method of mathematical modeling. Given the complexity of the structure of the object of exposure, the construction of a complete mathematical model seems to be an impossible task. Taking into account the specifics of the simulated process, a simplified mathematical analogue of the cover tissues of the human body can be used for research in the field of General cryotherapeutic impact technology. The efficiency of the mathematical model of the "shell" of the human body constructed using the passive boundary of the simulated object is shown.
