Garment fitness is influenced by garment pattern, human body shape, garment size and fabric drape. To investigate the effect of garment fitness on human body heat transfer, six different sized men's shirts with increasing chest circumference from 91cm to 111cm are tested. A thermal manikin with adjustable joint is used to test the thermal insulations and an infrared thermal camera is used to quantify...
Two kinds of ultrafine polyester nonwoven wadding different in weight were tested, and two kinds of hollow-core polyester wadding available in market were chosen as contrast. Then four clothing ensembles which were filled in four different kinds of thermal materials respectively were made. The contents of tests involved material properties and clothing wearing comfort (through objective thermal manikin...
The thermal insulation characteristics of two drysuit ensembles, consisting of the same tri-laminate outergarment with differing thermal undergarments, were measured on a 21-zone thermal manikin at the Navy Clothing and Textile Research Facility (NCRTF) during immersion testing when using air and argon alternatively as the suit inflation gas. Total thermal insulation values were determined for both...
