Lines of constant skin temperature with varying skin wettedness.

Author(s) : MOCHIDA T.

Summary

The purpose of the paper is to clarify the behaviour of wettedness at constant average skin temperature and to examine its effects on the line of equal average skin temperature drawn on a psychrometric chart. Experiments were carried out to determine the values of wettedness under constant average skin temperature using sitting/resting nude subjects. From the analysis of the present experimental data, conclusions were found regarding the change of wettedness under constant average skin temperatures. These conclusions are exposed and discussed.
