An expression derived by Take-uchi for the heat transfer coefficient of a fabric exposed to an air stream has been shown to apply (with suitable modification) to the transfer of water vapor through the fabric under the same conditions of ventilation. Experimental and calculated values of the moisture transfer coefficient agree fairly well.
