Ergonomics of the thermal environment - Estimation of thermal insulation and water vapour resistance of a clothing ensemble (ISO 9920:2007, Corrected version 2008-11-01)
ISO 9920:2007 specifies methods for estimating the thermal characteristics (resistance to dry heat loss and evaporative heat loss) in steady-state conditions for a clothing ensemble based on values for known garments, ensembles and textiles. It examines the influence of body movement and air penetration on the thermal insulation and water vapour resistance. It does not deal with other effects of clothing, such as adsorption of water, buffering or tactile comfort, take into account the influence of rain and snow on the thermal characteristics, consider special protective clothing (water-cooled suits, ventilated suits, heated clothing), or deal with the separate insulation on different parts of the body and discomfort due to the asymmetry of a clothing ensemble.
Ergnomie der thermischen Umgebung - Abschätzung der Wärmeisolation und des Verdunstungswiderstandes einer Bekleidungskombination (ISO 9920:2007, Korrigierte Fassung 2008-11-01)
Diese Internationale Norm legt Verfahren zur Abschätzung der thermischen Kennwerte (Widerstand gegen den Verlust an trockener Wärme und Verdunstungswiderstand) unter stationären Prüfbedingungen für eine Bekleidungskombination fest, die sich auf Werten für bekannte Kleidungsstücke, Bekleidungskombinationen und Textilien begründet. Sie behandelt den Einfluss von Körperbewegungen und des Luftdurchganges durch die Kleidung auf die Wärmeisolation und den Verdunstungswiderstand.
Diese Internationale Norm behandelt nicht
andere Wirkungen der Bekleidung wie Wasseraufnahme, Pufferwirkung und Tragekomfort,
den Einfluss von Regen und Schnee auf die thermischen Kennwerte,
spezielle Schutzkleidung (wasser oder luftgekühlte Anzüge, beheizte Kleidung) und
die örtliche Wärmeisolation an verschiedenen Körperteilen und die Unbehaglichkeit infolge der Asymmetrie der Bekleidungskombination.
Ergonomie des ambiances thermiques - Détermination de l'isolement thermique et de la résistance à l'évaporation d'une tenue vestimentaire (ISO 9920:2007, Version corrigé 2008-11-01)
L'ISO 9920:2007 spécifie des méthodes pour la détermination des caractéristiques thermiques d'une tenue vestimentaire, dans des conditions d'équilibre, à partir des valeurs de pièces vestimentaires, de tenues et de textiles connus. L'influence des mouvements du corps et de la pénétration de l'air sur l'isolement thermique et sur la résistance à l'évaporation est examinée.
L'ISO 9920:2007 ne traite pas des autres effets des pièces vestimentaires, tels que l'adsorption d'eau, l'effet tampon, le confort au toucher, ne tient pas compte de l'influence de la pluie et de la neige sur les caractéristiques thermiques, n'est pas applicable aux tenues de protection spéciales (tenues refroidies par eau, tenues ventilées, vêtements chauffants), et ne traite pas d'isolements thermiques distincts sur différentes parties du corps, ni de l'inconfort dû à l'asymétrie d'une tenue vestimentaire.
Ergonomija toplotnega okolja - Ocenitev toplotne izolativnosti in odpornosti oblačil proti vodni pari (ISO 9920:2007, popravljena različica 2008-11-01)
Ta mednarodni standard določa metode za ocenitev toplotnih lastnosti (odpornost proti izgubi suhe toplote in izgubi toplote preko izhlapevanja) v ustaljenih pogojih za oblačila, osnovana na vrednostnih za že znane obleke, komplete in tekstilije. Preučuje vplive telesnega gibanja in prodor zraka na toplotno izolacijo in odpornosti proti vlagi.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
