Novel Design of a Personal Liquid Cooling Vest for Improving the Thermal Comfort of Pilots Working in Hot Environments

Jingxian Xu et al.

Summary: Wearing a liquid cooling garment (LCG) improves the thermal comfort of pilots in hot environments. A novel LCG with a horizontal-vertical combined tube was proposed for optimal cooling performance. Human trials showed that wearing the novel LCG significantly reduced skin temperature and improved thermal sensation and heat stress level of pilots. These findings provide guidance for designing personal LCG to enhance comfort and safety in hot cockpits.

Soft-covered wearable thermoelectric device for body heat harvesting and on-skin cooling

Haoxiang Wei et al.

Summary: The recent emergence of self-powered wearable electronics has led to a growing demand for flexible, sustainable, and portable power supply. Wearable thermoelectric devices (WTEDs) convert body heat into electricity and show promise as power sources for wearable electronics, but their output power is still limited. This study presents a soft-covered WTET that demonstrates desirable performance and wearer comfort. By optimizing the design and fabrication, this soft-covered WTED achieves higher power density and can also cool the human skin.
