This phase provides characteristic parameters about the cooling performance of the fabric during physical activity including cooling delay (CD; time until a negative trend of Torso surface temperature is observed), initial cooling (IC, rate of temperature reduction observed after onset of cooling), sustained cooling (SC, rate of temperature reduction during quasi-steady temperature course) and moisture update (accumulated moisture in the fabric at the end of phase 2).
