![]() In the current study, a bench scale and easy-to-operate instrument has been developed to measure the radiative and contact heat protection performance of textile fabric/clothing in multilayered configurations. ![]() The instruments used to measure the protective capability of fabric against radiant heat are normally expensive and may unable to measure heat resistance behind each layer of a multilayer combination simultaneously. Various fibre, fabric and other materials offer different levels of protection against heat radiation. The protective clothing a firefighter wears is required to have good capability to resist this incoming heat radiation. Radiation is the main medium of heat transfer from fire to firefighter.
