Abstract
In recent years interest has grown in tests that predict injury potential by measuring the heat transferred from burning textile materials. The preferred test is one in which the geometry of the heat receiver closely approximates the form of the human body. This work describes the design and construction of a heat-sensing system capable of measuring the area of simulated first-, second-, and third-degree burns of the human body. Sufficient detail is included to allow con struction of similar mannequin systems by others.
