Abstract
A novel and intelligent product development approach is required in this fast-growing and advanced technological era. Therefore, textile researchers have worked intensively to create efficient and transparent solutions for complex developments by using advanced modeling and simulation tools and techniques. This paper addresses a process for the thermal simulation of sportswear by considering the human thermophysiological model and important thermal properties of fabrics, i.e., thermal resistance, evaporative resistance, and permeability index. The results of the simulation are illustrated in terms of core body and mean skin temperatures. Moreover, results are validated by wear trials showing good consistency. This study is beneficial to the development of clothing for specific sports and the evaluation of comfort and heat stress during different sports activities.
