Graphic presentation of the analytical parameters indicating the cooling performance for each test method: a Pmax: maximal cooling rate; Pavg: average cooling rate throughout the eight-hour measurement; Tc: cooling duration when P ≥ 20W/m2; AUC: area under the curve, indicating cooling capacity. b Pavg’: average cooling rate during Tc’; Peff: effective cooling rate (Pavg’-Pbase); Pbase: baseline power input measured with cooling vests not activated; Tc’: duration of cooling calculated until the Peff has decreased to 50W
