Quantitative Evaluation of an Unrestrictive Sweat Rate Measurement Device

Comparison of subjective and objective measurement of sweat transfer rate.

Sweat absorption is investigated using the subjective and objective methods. The subjective investigation analyses the physiological responses of male and female volunteers wearing two kinds of textile fabrics (cotton and polyester) during certain physical activity. The subjects were exposed to the different conditions of ambient temperature (23, 26, 29 and 32 degrees C) and constant relative h...
