The Skin Model is modified with a frame in order to model the microclimate which is present between the skin and the clothing. The aim of the study is to design and instrument the system by allowing dynamic control of moisture management as a function of time. Resistive humidity sensors are placed at 4 locations in the frame to measure the transfer rate of water molecules through the fabric layer. After checking the reproducibility of measurement, the influence of physical parameters (weight, thickness, moisture regain and fabric design) and thermo-hydric characteristics of fabrics (air permeability, wetting time, one-way transport index, thermal resistance and water vapour permeability) on the transfer rate is analyzed by applying a multiple linear regression. The statistical analysis suggests that one of the main parameters significantly affecting the moisture management is the moisture regain of the fabrics related to its chemical composition, since high fabric moisture regain values lead to low water vapor transfer through the layer. Furthermore, the textile design (1×1 Interlock or jersey), wetting time (WT) and one-way transport index (R) have a low influence on these hydric transfers. To obtain further information, dynamic vapor sorption (DVS) and desiccant inverted cup methods are introduced. For the DVS, the maximum water sorption at 35 °C was determined by the mass difference between 0 and 98 % relative humidity (RH). The desiccant inverted cup method allows moisture transfer to be measured without forcing it unlike frame tests. Methods are compared and this investigation clearly demonstrates that DVS and frame test can be used to assess quantitatively the hygroscopicity, and the moisture transfer rate between the microclimate and the surrounding environment. These parameters are related to the interactive forces between fibers and water molecules, and the ability to store water molecules within fibers by increasing the sample mass.

皮肤模型可以通过框架进行修改，以模拟皮肤和衣服之间的微气候。该研究的目的是通过允许随时间变化的水分管理动态控制来设计和检测系统。电阻湿度传感器放置在框架中的4个位置，以测量水分子通过织物层的传输速率。在检查测量结果的可重复性之后，物理参数（重量，厚度，回潮率和织物设计）和织物的热-水特性（空气透过率，湿润时间，单向传输指数，热阻和水蒸气透过率）的影响通过应用多元线性回归分析传输速率。统计分析表明，显着影响水分管理的主要参数之一是与织物的化学组成有关的织物回潮率，因为较高的织物回潮率值会导致较低的水蒸气透过层的传递。此外，纺织品设计（1×1互锁或平纹针织物），润湿时间（WT）和单向传输指数（R）对这些水力传递的影响很小。为了获得更多信息，介绍了动态蒸气吸附（DVS）和干燥剂倒置杯法。对于DVS，在35°C时的最大吸水率由0至98％相对湿度（RH）之间的质量差确定。与框架测试不同，干燥剂倒杯法可测量水分传递而不会强迫水分传递。方法进行了比较，这项调查清楚地表明，DVS和框架测试可用于定量评估微气候与周围环境之间的吸湿性和水分传递速率。这些参数与纤维和水分子之间的相互作用力以及通过增加样品质量在纤维内存储水分子的能力有关。
