Skin Thermal Modeling

Modeling skin thermally is extremely beneficial to study different types of laser and intensity and their effect thereof. A numerical heat differential equation was developed with appropriate boundary conditions making allowances for blood perfusion cooling rate , heat capacity and conduction comprised or 3 layers namely dermis , epidermis and subcutaneous. An equivalent RC thermal circuit was developed to assist with understanding of the temperature field and heat flow from node to node along depth of the tissue.
