Influence of Layer Configuration on Protecting Effect of Thermal Protective Clothing Containing PCM

Abstract:

Under high temperature condition, determination of phase transition temperature and combination of PCM layer with the other layers affect the thermal buffering properties of the protective clothing. In this paper, Body-clothing-environment temperature gradient was analyzed. Related data was obtained from the dressing experiments. After that, phase transition temperature range of the protective clothing was determined. Temperature and humidity of human skin and microclimate were tested respectively with different positions of PCM layer. Finally, the optimization layer configuration was suggested.
