本文件提供了一种测试方法，用于在规定的环境条件下，在一系列模拟活动（阶段）中评估防护织物套装和潜在防护服套装的生理影响。本标准试验方法描述了用于热生理评估的代表性服装或服装套装的织物组件的基本特性: -干式隔热； -平均代谢活动和水分管理期间的冷却性能（干湿热传递）； -干燥行为。 默认测量是在代表服装或防护服组合的织物样本上进行的。可选地，除了标准测试方法外，相同的测试协议可用于描述更复杂的防护服套装，包括内衣、空气层和某些设计特征[1]。此外，可以对成衣进行测量。 本试验方法旨在测量和描述在受控实验室条件下模拟一系列活动时，服装或服装套装的织物组合的行为，其结果用于优化服装组合和材料选择。此外，本文件与ISO 18640-2一起，旨在描述防护服的热生理影响，而非实际火灾条件下的热应力风险。该试验的结果可作为热生理负荷风险评估的要素。 [1] Empa（瑞士联邦材料科学与技术实验室，瑞士）进行的一项研究表明，标准躯干测试（不含内衣和织物上的空气层）的结果与含内衣的织物测试结果具有良好的相关性，对带有内衣和空气层的织物进行试验，并对相同材料成分的成衣（带有内衣和带有或不带有空气层）进行试验。 然而，由于附加层的附加隔热值，不可能在不同测量配置之间直接比较结果。

This document provides a test method for evaluating the physiological impact of protective fabric ensembles and potentially protective clothing ensembles in a series of simulated activities (phases) under defined ambient conditions. This standard test method characterizes the essential properties of fabric assemblies of a representative garment or clothing ensemble for thermo-physiological assessment: — dry thermal insulation; — cooling properties during average metabolic activity and moisture management (dry and wet heat transfer); — drying behaviour. Default measurements are done on fabric samples representing the garment or protective clothing combination. Optionally and in addition to the standard test method, the same testing protocol can be applied to characterise more complex protective clothing ensembles including underwear, air layer and certain design features[1]. In addition, measurements on readymade garments are possible. This test method is intended to be used to measure and describe the behaviour of fabric assemblies of a garment or clothing ensemble in response to a simulated series of activities under controlled laboratory conditions, with the results used to optimize garment combinations and material selection. Furthermore, this document together ISO 18640-2, is intended to be used to describe the thermo-physiological impact of protective clothing but not the risk for heat stress under actual fire conditions. The results of this test can be used as elements of a risk assessment with respect to thermo-physiological load. [1] A study conducted by Empa (Swiss Federal Laboratories for Materials Science and Technology, Switzerland) showed good correlation between results of standard torso tests (without underwear and air layers on fabrics) to tests on fabrics with underwear, tests on fabrics with underwear and air layers and test on readymade garments (with underwear and with or without air layers) of the same material composition. Due to the added thermal insulation values of the additional layers direct comparison of results between different measurement configurations is not possible, however.
