Influence of Multilayer Interlocked Fabrics Structure on Their Thermal Performance

Abstract This paper examines the influence of weaving variables such as yarn count, number layers, warp and weft ratio, materials top layer, density interlocking cell shape, size on thermal performance multilayer interlocked woven fabrics. A split-plot design was used to construct a total 64 fabric structures, which were assessed for in terms resistance convective, conductive, radiative heat. It found that, equal number, protective improved with layers presence air cells between these especially if not trapped within could rather pass freely cells. An optimal combination factors response three types heat established via Derringer–a much needed desirability function. The results this are useful identifying interaction configuration parameters performance, hence clothing.
