CLOTHING AS A FACTOR REGULATING SOLAR HEAT LOAD IN MAN

Studies pelfOlmed by Nielsen (1990) indicate a clear inftUCDCC of colour and insulation of clothing on absorption of solar mdiation as well as on the diIect physiological n::sponse of an organism, i.e. chaDges of skin tempemture and body halt content. The paper presents results of investigations dealing with absorption ofsolar radiation and its transfer through different fabric
