Abstract

Skin temperature, air temperature between skin and clothing, pulmonary ventilation, oxy-gen intake, and heart rate were measured to compare functional characteristics of the follow-ing four types of sporting suits: gymnastics, tennis, valley ball, and ping pong.The subjected tested were four young female adults and the experiments were performed during rest and eight grades of ergometer works from 0 to 600kpm/min in a climatic chamber (20°C db.and RH 50 %).<BR>A remarkably less physiological strain was confirmed during wearing tennis wear by the analysis of variance for the heart rate, though the mean skin temperature was significantly high in that case.This means a significant advantage of the tennis wear over the other three types of sporting suits, and also suggests that the mean skin temperature or the microclimate within clothings is not always an adequate criterion for the assessment of suitability in wear-ing experime nts.The relation between the physiological functions and body temperature was discussed from viewpoints of the above problems.
