Abstract

Recently, various types of towels and dishcloth dryer products are being widely distributed in Korea. Evaluation methods for water absorption properties of various fabrics have been developed, and there are many studies using them. This study newly intended that whether it is possible to obtain data that can quantitatively analyze the water absorption characteristics of various fabrics, to show the correlation between the water absorption height and the amount of water (water holdup) absorbed, and to experimentally suggest the applicability to evaluate the drying capacity of towel dryer using IR camera. Through these experiments, it was confirmed that quantitative data on the water absorption height of various fabrics can be measured using an IR camera and can be clearly applied to the performance evaluation of actual products.
