Résumé
With marine traffic increasing in remote polar regions, more people may be at risk of abandoning ship into lifeboats. In this paper, we present a model that uses iterative calculations based on the principles of heat transfer to analyze the interior microclimate of lifeboats, including temperature and air quality. The model considers a number of factors in these scenarios, such as environmental conditions, occupant anthropometrics, lifeboat size, and the clothing worn. The results indicate that many difficult-to-predict factors that can occur during a marine accident could significantly affect the habitability of the interior environment of a lifeboat.
