Abstract:
This research deals with the temperature increment and responsiveness of skin tissue to a continuous flow of surface heat induced by a constant-voltage electrical current. The exact analytical solution for the dual-phase-lag (DPL) of bioheat transfer has been obtained. It is used to confine the variables to a limited domain to solve the governing equations. The transition temperature reactions have been measured and investigated. The figures provide a comparison of the Pennes, Tzou models, and Vernotte-Cattaneo models. The numerical results demonstrate the values of the voltage, resistance, electric shock time, and dual-phase-lag time parameters which have significant influences on the distributions of the dynamic and conductive temperature rise through the skin tissue.

Mechanisms of Heat Transfer
Conduction, accounting for approximately 3% of body heat loss at rest, is the process of exchanging heat between molecules of two materials in direct contact. This can result in both heat loss and gain. For instance, when the body is submerged in water, which conducts heat 20 times more effectively than air, it can either lose or gain significant...
