Sensitivity of the Heat and Mass Transport System Within Neonate Clothing
Journal Title: Fibres and Textiles in Eastern Europe - Year 2015, Vol 23, Issue 3
Abstract
The global model of heat and mass transport is determined by means of the heat balance with a term describing evaporation of sweat. Heat is supplied by metabolic heat production and lost by means of different phenomena within all body portions. The global correlation can be solved for prescribed parameters of the bonnet and external clothing. Different clothing materials, covering area and thickness of the bonnet, as well as characteristic times are discussed to prevent hyperthermia and hypothermia.

Alternate Basic l/b-model of Effective Porosity Created for Hydrophilic (l) and/or Hydrophobic (b) Moist Textile Materials
There are several standard test methods (based on different construction mechanisms) and the respective experimental conditions (relative humidity, air velocity, test temperature) which lead to essentially different esti...

Investigation of the Effect of Pile Height and Yarn Linear Density on the Performance Properties of Pile Loop and Cut-Pile Loop Knit Fabrics
This paper investigates the effects of fabric structural parameters such as pile yarn linear density (19.7, 22.7 and 24.6 tex), ground yarn linear density (100 and 78 dtex), sinker height (2.2 sinker; 2.5 sinker and 2.8...
