Analysis and Comparison of Clothing Thermal Comfort Performance of the Existing Golf Wear
This purpose of this study was to study and compare the tiiermal comfort effect of different types of golf wears,by the objective analyzing method.Objective analysis consisted of four physical tests and a wear (rial.Seven healthy female subjects wore three kinds of golf wears,and rest for 15 min on a chair and exercise for 50 min at 5 km/h on a treadmill in a climatic chamber controlled at an air temperature of 30 °C and a relative humidity of 75%.Three white female golf wear brands - A,B and C,were chosen from available commercial samples.A made of 95% cotton and 5% Elastane.B made of 100% cotton,and C made of 63% Cotton,34% Polyester and 3% Spandex.The results showed B provided tiie best overall moisture management performance,water vapor permeability and air permeability.The fabric of A has more hydrophobic property tiian others,and the fabrics of B and C are hydrophilic.Mean skin relative humidity and heart rate were the significantly lowest,and deep ear canal temperature and mean skin temperature were tiie second lowest in B.We can conclude that tiie overall thermal and moisture comfort for the wearing of B golf wear is tiie best and most stable,which might be due to its superior moisture management performance,water vapor permeability and air permeability,as well as hydrophilic property.
