SAVING WATERPROOF BREATHABLE GARMENTS WITH ELECTRICITY
Recently I read and wrote about companies in Europe and Asia working on electrifying outerwear jackets, and now I see a productive purpose.
When the laminated waterproof breathable fabrics are tested in laboratories worldwide to demonstrate air or vapor transmission through the materials they use fans to move the vapor through the fabric. Those fans are activated by electrical power. So electricity is the answer. This is where the European and Asian companies come into play.
You have a shell fabric that not only is laminated to the ptfe film but it also has electrical filaments running through it. The lining can be any nylon fabric that is vapor permeable, but the key to the garments ability to function is what is placed between the shell and the lining; fans, miniature fans!!!
Two inch square housing about ½ inch deep with fans in each of them. They can be attached together on the top and bottom and then side to side so they are layered as insulation is in a garment. All of the fans would be attached to each other in tandom.
The fans will blow the vapor at the fabric and force some of the vapor through like it happens in the laboratories. Now that there is heating elements in the shell they can now turn on the heat and reverse the direction of the fans to blow the heat at your body.
Maybe we should send this to gore so they can refine it in their $15,000,000.00 laboratory.
After all of the years I have spent exposing the fallacy of wp/b materials I now have come to their rescue. Always glad to help.
This pioneering development should also be helpful to the electric jacket makers they too need all the help they can get.
We will have a new addition to the fan makers having to make miniature fans with pivoting blades so they are capturing air from the inside and forcing it out through those 9 billion holes per square inch and then the blades can automatically rotate to drive the heated air towards the body of the person wearing the garment. But the fan speed will not be strong enough to pull outside air through any of those 9 billion holes in the ptfe film.
There will be a thermometer on the inside of the jacket and a dial to regulate the heat so you don’t over heat when using this garment in Antarctica in January.
I am sure the battery makers will come up with a battery that has remarkable power. The electric makers could to elon musk for the batteries. In this manner you could recharge them at his recharging stations.
Now for the cost, probably in the $11,000.00 range but it will be directed to the ultra- wealthy in the entertainment industry.
Do not expect to see it on the Wiggy web site.
