8. To verify that the condition is applied correctly to the occupant, check the Design Study bar and the colored stripes on the human part.
- a. On the Design Study bar, the Total Heat Generation condition should be listed with a value of 60 W.
- b. There should be a colored stripe on the surfaces of the human that corresponds to Total Heat Generation on the legend. (Don't worry if not all the surfaces on the occupant have a stripe.)
