Garment fit and still air between clothing layers affect heat transfer through the clothing and thus the thermal insulation. Wind and body movement decreases clothing insulation by causing ventilation inside the clothing and by compressing air layers. The objective was to find the optimum size combination of three-layered clothing at two different wind speeds, and in stationary and walking situations, and to evaluate the effect of the wind direction... view moreĀ»
