Popis: Body temperature is an important physiological signal in terms of heat, cold stress and comfort aspects. The aim of this study was to develop weft knitted temperature- sensing fabric along with application of welding technology. Temperature sensing structures have been realised by knitting conductive yarns into the textile structure. The working principle of knitted sensors is based on the inherent tendency of conductive yarn to respond changes in temperature according to its electrical resistance. Knitted samples have been manufactured by alternating base material properties and conductive yarn linear resistance. This affected sensing properties of sensing structures. While applying of welding technology has resulted in increase in nominal resistance values, it also affected linearity of the sensors.
