Development of Superior Women’s Inner Garment for Thermal Comfort
【Supercategory：3. Textile Category：3.5 Kansei engineering Subcategory：3.5.2 Kansei measurement and evaluation】
We investigated the influences of fibrous materials and the knitted structure of women’s foundation garments on the heat and water transfer properties in the test simulating insensible perspiration or sweating condition. The water evaporation rate (Wn) significantly increased for more highly hygroscopic and thin materials in the test simulating insensible perspiration condition. The larger area of water absorption (Ab) was associated with a significant increase in wet heat loss (Hws) and a shortened drying time in the testing simulating sweating condition.
