Abstract
The work described in a previous communication was continued with a view to comparing the heat transmission through fabrics worn by women indoors with the heat transmission of those worn by men. The results show that women can be just as warmly clothed on the body as men without wearing unusual clothing, but that on the calf of the leg a man's clothing has a T.I.V. about twenty times that of a woman. The results are discussed from the point of view of the heating engineer.Keywords
