A modified Kalman filter-based model for core temperature estimation during exercise and recovery with/without personal cooling interventions.

Journal of Thermal Biology, 2022
One of the most important parameters to consider while analysing heat related illness is the human body core temperature. It is therefore required to monitor real-time core temperature in an ambulatory situation for industrial workers, athletes, military

Microstructured Reflective Coatings on Commodity Textiles for Passive Personal Cooling.

ACS Applied Materials and Interfaces
As the effects of climate change become more severe and widespread, maintaining personal thermal homeostasis becomes necessary for survival. In principle, advanced textiles and garments have the ability to leverage light absorption, transmission and/or ...

A Lightweight, Low-Cost Liquid-Metal Personal Cooling System for Prolonged Cooling

2020 IEEE International Conference on Consumer Electronics (ICCE), 2020
The impact of global warming on personal health is a growing concern, as high temperatures can cause heat stress disorders. Personal cooling systems are a promising solution in environments where air conditioning is not available or infeasible such as the outdoor working environment of utility workers, and treatment of hyperthermia for athletes ...

Green Production of Regenerated Cellulose/Boron Nitride Nanosheets Textile for Static and Dynamic Personal Cooling.

ACS Applied Materials and Interfaces, 2019
Personal cooling technology using functional clothing that could provide localized thermal regulation instead of cooling the entire space, is regarded as a highly anticipated strategy to not only facilitate thermal comfort and human health but also be ...

Personal View: Hot Photons and Cool Optics

Synchrotron Radiation News, 2007
Twenty years is a long time, but it seems to me as if it were yesterday when the three of us—Michel Belakhovsky, Christian Riekel and I—first scientists of the Experiments Division (except the directors) at the not yet created European Synchrotron Radiation Facility, living in a temporary and not very solid building, made the last corrections to the ...

An objective method for screening and selecting personal cooling systems based on cooling properties

Applied Ergonomics, 2015
A method is proposed for evaluation and selection of a personal cooling system (PCS) incorporating PCS, subject, and equipment weights; PCS run time; user task time; PCS cooling power; and average metabolic rate. The cooling effectiveness method presented is derived from first principles and allows those who select PCSs for specific applications to ...

Biomedical Application Of Aerospace Personal Cooling Systems

Proceedings of the 17th Southern Biomedical Engineering Conference, 2005
Personal thermoregulatory systems which are used by astronauts to alleviate thermal stress during extravehicular activity have been applied to the therapeutic management of multiple sclerosis. However, little information is available regarding the physiologic and circulatory changes produced by routine operation of these systems. The objectives of this

Personal-portable Cooling Garment Based on Adsorption Vacuum Membrane Evaporative Cooling

2011
A cutting edge man-portable AVMEC cooling garment was demonstrated to be able to provide sufficient cooling for personnel working at mediate activity loads. Studies were first carried out in a well controlled vacuum desiccator at room temperature to elucidate the effects of several key parameters on the performance of an AVEC device, which was similar ...

From innovation to application of personal cooling vest

Smart and Sustainable Built Environment, 2016
Purpose– The Hong Kong government agencies launched a “Cooling Vest Promotion Pilot Scheme” across four industries, namely, construction, horticulture and cleaning, airport apron services, and kitchen and catering industries in 2013. A follow-up questionnaire survey regarding this innovative heat stress controlling measure was administered to evaluate ...
