Local　heating　or　cooling　of　body　has　been　the　research　hotspot　in　the　field　of　thermal　comfort.　This　paper　analyses　the　impact　of　local　cooling　of　forehead,　back,　and　foot　on　overall　thermal　response　under　specific　environmental　parameters.　The　experiment　uses　thermal　manikin　as　the　subject.　Based　on　the　orthogonal　experimental　design,　in　a　climate　chamber　with　different　ambient　temperature　of　28,　31,　34 °C,　local　cold　stimulation　of　22,　24,　26 °C　were　given　to　the　different　three　parts　of　thermal　manikin.　According　to　the　average　skin　temperature　recorded,　thermal　comfort　could　be　evaluated.　The　results　indicated　that　local　cooling　of　each　one　of　the　three　parts　can　reduce　the　average　skin　temperature　to　some　extent.　The　key　part　of　local　stimulation　is　foot　＞　back ＞ forehead.　The　findings　have　important　implications　for　further　research.　©　2020,　Springer　Nature　Singapore　Pte　Ltd.
