Proceedings of The Fifth Int. Con/. on Environmental Ergonomics EFFECT OF WIND AND BODY MOVEMENTS ON CLOTHING INSULATION- MEASUREMENT WITH A MOVEABLE THERMAL MANIKIN

The combined effects of body movements and wind considerably enhance heat loss from the human body. Accordingly, the resullant insulation provided by clothing is reduced (1, 2, 3) and becomes lower than its slandard value, measured with a thermal manikin under slanding, Slatic conditions (4,5). This reduction must be accounted for whenever clothing dala are required in predictive models (6, 7, 8). In a previous paper w
