Abstract

A computational-experimental method of material selection for thermal protective clothing design is proposed in this article. The intended operating temperature of the garment lies within the range of 40−170 °С. The prerequisite for the research was the lack of information regarding changes in the physical-mechanical and ergonomic characteristics of material assemblies during their use under high-temperature conditions. During the initial stage of research, there was a problem associated with the selection of the most important and the exclusion of the least significant indicators, in order to further reduce the number of experimental tests in laboratory and industrial conditions. The authors used the method of expert evaluations to solve the problems related to the selection of the most significant indicators for material assemblies. Material assemblies were formed by varying the combinations of heat-resistant, heat-insulation and lining layers of materials. Initial information for the proposed method was obtained from the experimental tests of sixteen material assemblies. According to the results of the ranking, the main parameters of material assemblies were identified as follows: the temperature range for which the use of clothing is intended, thickness, mass per unit density, rupture resistance, relative tearing elongation, change in linear dimensions during mechanical loads, air permeability and change in assembly thickness during cyclic loads. It was established that the assembly that includes heat-resistant material of the Nomex comfort N.307 220 top, Nomex Serie 100 heat-insulation lining and Nomex TER 135 lining provides the necessary level of protection, reliability and ergonomics, and meets cost requirements.
