Abstract

One of the fundamental functions of clothing is to keep the human body in an appropriate thermal environment in which it can maintain its thermal balance and thermal comfort. This paper investigates the process of thermal perceptions of clothing and to develop a modelling method for predicting thermal clothing comfort performance from fabric physical properties. We try to represent objectively the thermal comfort to simulate the consumer comfort perception by using desirability function. The conceived index can help fabric’s producer, fashion or textile designer, to tune affine the textile product for the whished application according to the index’s value
