Development of the Wearable Personal Cooling System
Abstract This paper discusses the development of the wearable personal cooling system for reducing thermal stress in hot environment. The personal cooling system is operated with the compact refrigeration system by compressing refrigerant. The compact refrigeration system is applied with the miniaturization and weight reduction for portable and ...

The use of thermography to measure the cooling performance of personal cooling systems
The thermoregulatory system is responsible for maintaining body temperature. When the body temperature is between 36.1ºC and 37.1ºC, our body is in a state of thermal well-being, and there is an exchange of body heat between our body and the ambience. When exposed to high temperatures, the body’s heat exchange with the environment decreases, causing an
