Method and Numerical Model for Assessing the Comfort of Heat-protective Clothing under Extremely Cold Conditions

  • Published:
Fibre Chemistry Aims and scope

Mathematical and numerical models of heat transfer in a package of materials for heat-protective clothing, which are solved for conditions of extreme cold and extremely low temperatures, are presented. Based on the results of a numerical experiment for the conditions typical for the territories of the Far North of the Russian Federation, the heat balance structure in the materials package and the components of heat transfer to the environment are established.
