A novel approach for modelling of the textile structure was applied, based on jet systems. The heat transfer through the systems of layers was studied for indoor conditions, simulating skin and indoor air temperature, as well as the effect of the convective cross flow around the human body. The results of the study showed that the heat transfer through a system of two layers is strongly influenced by the porosity and thickness of the fabrics, as well as their arrangement in the systems as an insulating barrier between the body and the environment.}, number = {04}, urldate = {2020-09-14}, journal = {Industria Textila}, author = {Radostina, Angelova A. and Kyosov, Miroslav and Stankov, Peter}, month = aug, year = {2020}, pages = {393--397} }
