The human body is a thermal machine, immersed in air. In this paper, the thermoregulation of the body is presented and explained. Due to its thermoregulation, the body ensures its independent activity, regardless the outer temperatures. That system is quite complex, performant and reactive with a great adaptabitily.
To be valid and efficient, the modelisation of that system has to integrate all those exceptionnal characteristics.
