Abstract
En 中文
Measuring heat flow can be useful in determining the amount of heat exchanged between the human body and the environment in order to improve the comfort, efficiency and sometimes, the safety of the wearer. Scientists use passive heat flow sensors to measure body heat exchanges with the environment. In recent years, several such sensors have been developed and concerns about their proper calibration have been expressed. Moreover, the existing heat flow sensors are impermeable and prevent evaporation which gives inaccurate results when the evaporation phenomenon is present. We developed a flexible heat flow sensor which is permeable to water vapor. This sensor takes into account the evaporation phenomenon and allows a better measurement of the energy during the heat exchange. This paper describes the textile heat flow sensor realization, calibration and possible applications. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
