Thickness Optimisation of Sealed Seams. in Respect of Insulating Properties

摘要

The main goal is to determine the optimal thickness of material layers in seams in respect of their insulating properties. The impact of structure on heat insulation and moisture resistance is also described. The insulation was analysed for different types of sealed seams which are typically used to connect the different parts of clothing. The coupled heat and mass transport problem is defined by the transport equations and a set of boundary and initial conditions. Based on the variational approach, we introduce the typical objective functionals and the optimality conditions. The problem was solved using the finite,element method at the analysis stage and sensitivity approach at the synthesis stage.
