The authors have developed a numerical model for the prediction of heat transfer capabilities of protective clothing when exposed to low-level radiant heat flux in order to increase the comfort of the protective clothing used by firefighters. It was determined that the model was able ...
Through the use of thermal conductivity and moisture related measurements, this article investigates the physical properties of undergarments of different compositions (cotton, polyester, rayon, viscose, etc.). This research is used to determine which types of materials would best be suited for use in sports/day-to-day/...
