Protective clothing for firefighters - Physiological impact - Part 1: Measurement of coupled heat and moisture transfer with the sweating torso - Amendment 1 (ISO 18640-1:2018/Amd 1:2019)

This European Standard specifies the Sweating Torso as a method to
measure the coupled heat and mass transfer through protective clothing
in fire fighters’ specific conditions.
NOTE The Sweating Torso is developed to perform highly reproducible
laboratory tests for heat and mass transfer on clothing systems under
controlled conditions which are closely correlated to real conditions. The
Sweating Torso is a cylinder with the same size as a human trunk. The
layers of the measurement cylinder are made of compact Teflon,
polyethylene and aluminium. Due to this combination of materials,
transient processes can be modelled. Thus, changes in the skin and core
temperature can be simulated. The Sweating Torso contains a total of 54
independently-controlled sweating nozzles. In order to avoid any axial
heat loss, the cylinder has a heated guard at each end. The cylinder and
the thermal guards are heated electrically using heating foils. The
Sweating Torso can be run either with constant surface temperature or
with constant heating. The whole Sweating Torso is placed on a
precision scale to assess the evaporated and condensed amount of
water.

Varovalna obleka za gasilce - Fiziološki vpliv - 1. del: Merjenje skupnega prenosa toplote in vlage s torzom za potenje - Dopolnilo A1 (ISO 18640-1:2018/Amd 1:2019)

Ta evropski standard določa torzo za potenje kot metodo za merjenje skupnega prenosa toplote in mase skozi varovalno obleko v specifičnih pogojih dela gasilcev. OPOMBA: torzo za potenje je bil zasnovan za izvajanje laboratorijskih preskusov z visoko stopnjo ponovljivosti za prenos toplote in mase na oblačila v nadzorovanih pogojih, ki so zelo podobni dejanskim pogojem. Torzo za potenje je valj, ki je enake velikosti kot človeški trup. Plasti merilnega valja so izdelan iz kompaktnega teflona, polietilena in aluminija. Takšna kombinacija materialov omogoča izdelavo modela za procese prehajanja. Na ta način je mogoče posnemati spremembe v temperaturi kože in bazalni temperaturi. Torzo za potenje skupaj vsebuje 54 šob za potenje z neodvisnim upravljanjem. Valj je na obeh koncih opremljen z ogrevanim varovalom, ki preprečuje aksialno izgubo toplote. Za ogrevanje valja in toplotnih varoval se uporabljajo električne grelne folije. Torzo za potenje lahko deluje s stalno temperaturo površine ali s stalnim ogrevanjem. Celoten torzo za potenje je postavljen na natančno tehtnico, s katero je mogoče oceniti količino izhlapele in kondenzirane vode.
