abstract = {<p>Studying the effect of clothing on thermoregulatory responses of human body is highly complex because
clothing, resp. a clothing system, as a heat exchange layer between the body and the environments must
ensure a balance between heat production and heat dissipation within different environments and during
various activities. The problem becomes more complex in the case of protective clothing, which requires
liquid penetration resistance or impermeability of the material, restricting thus the dry heat flux by
conduction, convection, and radiation, as convection and conduction transfer of heat caused by sweat
evaporation and condensation. This paper deals with the study of the impact of clothing as baseline
clothing, made from different functional materials, on thermoregulatory responses of human body in
the limited heat and moisture transfer context. The results of the investigation show that the effect of
baseline clothing, as an interface layer, worn under impermeable protective clothing, on thermoregulatory
responses of human body, is limited during wearing in a hot environment.</p>},
