| Research Abstract |
The simplified technique of measuring local sweat volume on relatively large skin area was established using absorbing pads. The sweat volume differed according to the region of the body in our great deal of experimentation. On the other hand, the percentage of sweat rate, which meat the ratio of the local sweat rate to the total amount of sweat at its body site during the experiment, showed a similar change over time at all the sites of the body in a man's and woman's body of all ages. It made easier to utilize the estimated sweat rate in designing the clothes by corresponding it to the mean body temperature.
