2. Tog (unit) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tog_(unit)

   So that practical clothing may be described conveniently by a range of small integers, the unit of thermal resistance, to be called the “tog”, is the resistance that will maintain a temperature difference of 0.1°C. with a flux of 1 watt per square metre, or in more practical terms, 10°C. with a flux of 1 watt per square decimetre.

3. Clothing insulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clothing_insulation

   The ambient temperature at which someone's body will be at thermal equilibrium depends on the rate of heat generation per unit area P and the thermal insulance of the clothing R. The empirical formula is: [citation needed] T = 31°C − P·R. or, if R is taken to be the number of clos and P the number of watts per square metre, T = (31 − 0. ...

4. Thermal insulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_insulation

   Thermal insulation is the reduction of heat transfer (i.e., the transfer of thermal energy between objects of differing temperature) between objects in thermal contact or in range of radiative influence. [1] Thermal insulation can be achieved with specially engineered methods or processes, as well as with suitable object shapes and materials.

5. Space blanket - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_blanket

   A space blanket (also known as a Mylar blanket, emergency blanket, first aid blanket, safety blanket, thermal blanket, weather blanket, heat sheet, foil blanket, or shock blanket) is an especially low-weight, low-bulk blanket made of heat-reflective thin plastic sheeting. They are used on the exterior surfaces of spacecraft for thermal control ...

   Asbestos and basalt fibre are used for vinyl tiles, sheeting and adhesives, "transite" panels and siding, acoustical ceilings, stage curtains, and fire blankets. Glass fibre is used in the production of ironing board and mattress covers, ropes and cables, reinforcement fibre for composite materials, insect netting, flame-retardant and ...
