Abstract

The thermal manikin is a kind of equipment which can simulate the data of human body environment heat exchange and be used for the comfort test of clothing and so on. In this paper, the thermal resistance of the thermal manikin is measured according to the heat flow, surface temperature and environment temperature. The results show that the thermal resistance of the waist and abdomen is very close to that of the mountain suit. The thermal resistance of the local position is even better than that of the mountain suit, but the leg part of the thermal resistance value is only half of the mountain suit, which seriously affects the thermal resistance of the whole suit. Combined with the clothing surface temperature collected by infrared thermal imager, the test results are verified. It provides the basis for the design of clothing warmth preservation.
