Numerical simulation of the heating process in the domain of tissue insulated by protective clothing

In this paper the 2D heterogeneous tissue domain (forearm cross-section) insulated by a layer of protective clothing is considered. The aim of considerations is to develop an algorithm simulating the tissue heating process resulting from the sudden change of external boundary conditions. Here, the authors exploit a certain version of the control volume method (CVM) using the Voronoi tessellation. The mathematical model of heat exchange in the domain analyzed is formulated in the form of a boundary-initial problem based on the system of partial differential equations (energy equations) supplemented by the adequate boundary and initial conditions. In the final part of the paper, the examples of numerical simulations are shown
