Abstract

In accordance with escalating demands for advanced technology products, the smart clothing that includes embedded ICT technology have expanded into fields of daily life. As a result of this trend, interest in smart clothing with digitally controllable heating has rapidly grown and the market for smart heated clothing has also expanded. Increasing of prospect in smart heated clothing market, the effectiveness and thermal sensation research of the location on the pad attached is insufficient. This study was conducted to find the optimal location of heated clothing via experimental research on changes in skin temperature and subjective thermal sensation when heating pads were placed on different areas of the body. For this experiment, the subjects consisted of 10 males in their 20's of standard physique. The skin temperature at 11 different areas of the body, rectal temperature, and subjective thermal sensation were taken at different stages (before testing, after a 20 minute rest period, 20 minute treatment period, and after a 40 minute recovery period) in an artificial-climate chamber at $-5^{\circ}C$. As a result, the optimal location for heating pads in smart clothing was estimated and suggested.

최근 고기능성 제품에 대한 수요가 증가함에 따라 ICT 기능과의 융합을 통한 스마트 의류는 일상생활 분야로 확대되고 있다. 그 중 하나로, 발열 텍스타일 및 제어 모듈을 통해 의복 내 발열기능을 조절하는 스마트 의류에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있으며, 발열 기능을 갖는 스마트 의류의 시장 전망이 높아지고 있으나, 발열 패드 부착위치에 따른 발열 기능의 효용성 및 온열감에 대한 연구는 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 발열 패드의 위치에 따른 피부온의 변화와 온열감에 대한 실증적 연구를 통하여 발열기능의 스마트 의류 개발을 위한 최적의 발열 위치를 도출하고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 20대 표준체형의 남성 10명을 피험자로 선정하였으며, 영하 $5^{\circ}C$의 인공기후실에서 20분의 안정기, 20분의 처치기, 40분의 회복기를 통해 11군데에서의 피부온, 직장온과 주관적 온열감을 측정, 평가하였다. 최종적으로, 발열패드를 위한 최적의 위치를 도출하고 제시하였다.
