	abstract = {In this study, a simple mathematical model based on conductive heat transfer is suggested for predicting the thermal
resistance of wet woven fabric. For this purpose, cellulosic fabrics produced in two different weave types with different
moisture content were investigated. Fabric is considered a system of a porous structure consisting of fibre, air and if
present, water. The thermal resistance of fabric was calculated according to the proportion of these components. It was
considered that the water’s location could have changed the resistance values. The assumption was the capillary water
was arranged serially with fibres and air when it was located in the yarns, and it was arranged parallel with the air when
it was located between the yarns. Calculated values were compared with the measurement values obtained from
ALAMBETA. When the results were evaluated, the obtained values were quite good except for the absolute dry fabric.
Serial arrangement of fibre and air was better fitted for dry fabric. So, it is thought that the air acts as a single block in
absolute dry fabrics. Additionally, for comparison, Maxwell-Eucken2 (ME-2) was also used. The new model’s R2 value
is a little higher than the other model as 0.9017. Furthermore, MSSD and MSAD values were 0.0000013 and 0.0007878
for this model, respectively. As a result of the study, it can be said that the suggested model is useful for predicting the
thermal resistance of woven fabrics with different moisture content. Besides this, analyses of fabric porosity can be
useful to manage the thermal resistance of wet fabrics.},
