ShareA DATA BASE FOR DETERMINING THE EVAPORATIVE RESISTANCE OF CLOTHING.
Author(s) : MCCULLOUGH E. A., JONES B. W., TAMURA T.
Summary
THE INSULATION VALUE, EVAPORATIVE RESISTANCE, AND PERMEABILITY INDEX OF 22 REPRESENTATIVE CLOTHING ENSEMBLES (WITH AND WITHOUT THE CONTRIBUTION OF THE AIR LAYER AROUNDTHE CLOTHED BODY) WERE MEASURED WITH A THERMAL MANIKIN. THESE PARAMETERS WERE ALSO MEASURED FOR 39 COMPONENT FABRICS USING A SWEATING HOT PLATE APPARATUS. A TWO-DIMENSIONAL COMPUTER MODEL WAS DEVELOPED. THE PREDICTIONS GENERATED BY THE MODEL WERE COMPARED TO VALUES MEASURED WITH A MANIKIN. THE DATA INDICATED THAT THE EVAPORATIVE RESISTANCE VALUE FOR COMMON, INDOOR CLOTHING COULD BE ESTIMATED USING THE INSULATION VALUE FOR THE ENSEMBLE, AND THE LEWIS RELATION.
