Analysis of Thermal Properties Affected by Different Extension Levels of Compression Socks

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The aim of this research is to analyze the effect of various extension levels on thermal properties including thermal conductivity and thermal effusivity of compression socks. Compression socks are recommended as tool for compression therapy but discouraged because poor performance regarding its interaction to thermal properties especially the thermal conductivity and effusivity. The problem of this research is to investigate how much the circumferential extensibility of compression socks affects its thermal comfort properties. Here, gradual increase in extension values of strips depicts the different circumferences of the legs. For extension, we introduced novel extension frame attached with movable gears and revolving handle. The aim of this research is to analyze effect of gradient elastic elongation [%] on thermal effusivity [W.s1/2/m2.K] and thermal conductivity [W/m.K] in relaxed (0% extension) and extended state (up to 70% extension). To extend the compression socks a novel extension frame was used. Conclusively, we found that as elastic elongation increases, thermal conductivity and thermal effusivity changes significantly. We also have concluded for extension above 70% that the trends changes and comfort properties started to decline. Out of three socks samples, the best one was rib structured compression socks sample.
