Abstract:

Based on the problems that person working in the extremely hot or cold environment may suffer from injuries like heat strke, heat cramps and hypothermia, the basic principle of human thermal regulation was reviewed, and the advantages and disadvantages were compared. On the aspect of personal cooling garments, the air cooling, phase change microcapsule (PCM) cooling, ice pack cooling and liquid cooling method were introduced. For the personal heating garments, the electrical heating, PCM heating, and chemical heating method were introduced. Based on the current research trend, the outlook for the emerging trend of personal garments and wearable technologies were also discussed. A new type of personal cool/heating garment which is integrated with life monitoring function was also proposed.

Key words: heating/cooling garment, wearable technology, human thermal regulation, clothing comfort
