Résumé

The integration in the soldier's suit of increasing protection levels makes the suit perfectly water and air-tight, which decreases thermal exchanges towards the outside atmosphere. Two processes are developed. The first process is based on a production of cold, from a chemical reaction between a solid (like chloride) and a gas (ammonia), whereas the second process produces cold from the desorption of a gas (carbon dioxide), previously fixed on a solid (like activated charcoal). Two functional models built from these processes are described. The second part is based on the thermal transfer between the subject (internal heat production) and the air conditioner (cold production). Finally, the two air-conditioner models have been evaluated on two subjects in the Human Factor laboratory of the "Centre d'Etudes du Bouchet".
