The thermal dynamics and design of an advanced space suit are considered. A transient model of the advanced space suit design has been developed and implemented using MATLAB ® /Simulink, to help with sizing, with design evaluation, and with the development of an automatic thermal comfort control strategy. The model is described and the thermal characteristics of the advanced space suit are investigated including various parametric design studies. The steady-state performance envelope for the advanced space suit is dee ned in terms of the thermal environment and human metabolic rate and the transient response of the human-suit ‐minimum consumables portable life support system is analyzed.
