Abstract
The paper considers the problem of coalmenâs neglect of using special work clothing because of disturbance of heat-mass exchange between the Man and the environment. It contains consideration of the main reasons of disturbance of the workersâ heat balance as well as highlights three main professions for which these three reasons are the most peculiar. Mathematical calculation of heat-mass exchange between the man wearing the special work clothing and the environment is suggested to be used considering severity of labor conditions of the worker, uneven distribution of human bodyâs heat production zones and its exposure to coal dust. The main formulas for calculation are provided as well as the recommendations for their application.
