Helmet is a mandatory head gear for safety of bike riders and motor cyclist. But, safety of riders by using helmet is influenced by many factors like properties of material, scope of sight, weight, thermal aspects (skin temperature and sweat rate inside).

Parameters like thermal discomfort and warmth perception play important role physically and mentally lowering their support to safety. Hence they are to be monitored and controlled.

The present work focuses on experimental analysis of standard helmet and the modified helmet with peltier module and provisions to air flow. The changes made may effect various aspects like strength and weight. Modeling and static structural analysis are done and suggestion are made to optimize the helmet up to required level to support user’s safety focusing on improvement of thermal comfort and ergonomics. The temperatures between the existing standard and modified models are experimentally observed and compared.

The experimental results showed that the helmet with peltier module and heat sink in presence of velocity exhibits good human comfort as it cools effectively in comparison with standard helmet in the normal conditions
