Understanding Thermal Resistance of Textile Material

Estimating the heat exchange between the human body and the environment

Quantifying the metabolism of a person resting in a sitting position under thermal comfort conditions (correct)

Expressing the heat lost through evaporation and respiration from the skin

Measuring the insulation of a clothing system for an average male in a ventilated room

It represents the heat lost through evaporation and respiration from the skin

It is defined as the insulation required to maintain a sitting-resting average male comfortable in a normally ventilated room (correct)

It measures the metabolic heat generation in W/m2

It indicates the heat transmitted through clothing to maintain thermal comfort

1 Met = 38 kcal/m2 h

1 Met = 50 kcal/m2 h (correct)

1 Met = 58.2 W/m2

1 Met = 24 % of metabolic heat
