Abstract:

The inverse problem of textile material design (IPTMD) aims to determine textile materials with optimum thermal conductivities for the thickness designed in terms of the thermal comfort requirements of the wearer. In this paper, an IPTMD is presented on the basis of the physical nature of steady heat and moisture transfer in a human body-clothing-environment system. A globally convergent algorithm, the modified particle collision algorithm (MPCA), is proposed and its validity is verified. The MPCA is applied to solve the IPTMD for single-layer textile materials at low temperature. Numerical simulation results of the IPTMD proved the suitability of the IPTMD and effectiveness of the MPCA in solving complex global optimisation problems. The encouraging results indicate that the modelling method above and optimisation algorithm can be used for further applications.
