演講題目:Transforming the Process of Developing Protective Clothing Prototypes for Optimum Comfort Performance
演講者: Dr. Roger L. Barker, Director of Center for Research on Textile Protection and Comfort(TPACC)
演講大綱:Modern systems based approaches and advances in smart textile materials have transformed the process by which we engineer and design functional protective textile products for optimum performance and end-user acceptance. This presentation will describe how this modern approach has been used at NC State University to develop entirely new structural firefighter suit prototypes designed to provide greater thermal comfort and reduce firefighter heat stress. It will discuss what to expect through the incorporation of smart or temperature responsive materials, including phase change materials and shape memory alloys, and how these materials impact thermal protective performance at the clothing systems level. It will discuss modifications to the functional design of the turnout suit itself, including the use of heat venting features and functional design strategies designed to reduce fabric layering and system bulk in order to reduce the thermal burden to the wearer. It will show how new approaches for using sweating manikins coupled with sophisticated thermal models can play an important role in developing advanced protective clothing systems. It will demonstrate how recent advances in the Pyroman™ fire test manikin system have enabled unprecedented evaluation of the impact of turnout design changes on systems level fire protection. Finally, it will describe how the findings of this research may be used to impact international standards for testing and certifying firefighter turnout gear, and what they can mean for the broader development of high-performing technical clothing systems and products by industry.
