Abstract
Six each undergarment for female and male, thirteen garments for female, and twenty-five garments for male are examined in a climatic chamber under the conditions of ambient temperature 20℃, relative humidity 65% and air velocity 0.3m/sec. It is recognized that approximately linear relation exists between clothing weight and its clo. value, and the thermal resistance of garment is different between the female's one and male's one. The clo. value of garment corresponding to each part of the human body has shown. It is also recognized that even if the average clo. value is similar, the partial clo. value is different, furthermore, some examples of garment expected to be comfortable under the conditions of ambient temperature 20℃ and 25℃ have shown. The heat loss from the human body wearing garments is estimated at 30〜50kcal/m^2hr.
