abstract = {Textile is certainly a complex multi-pore structure, which can be described as parallel pore 
structure or pellets accumulation pore structure. The heat and moisture transfer through textile is 
affected by its structure. Based on the parallel pore structure of textile and a system of 
human-textile-environment, this paper reports a model of heat and moisture transfer through 
parallel pore textiles. It is a system of coupled ordinary differential equations on temperature, 
water vapor pressure and water vapor mass flux through textile and condensation on the surface 
of textile. By solving the coupled ordinary differential equations, three formulae are acquired to 
describe temperature, water vapor pressure from human skin surface to environment and water 
vapor transfer through textile respectively. Then we obtain the numerical solution of temperature 
and the rate of condensation by finite difference method (FDM). Numerical simulation is achieved 
for down and polyester material in order to verify the validity of methods. The numerical results 
are well matched with the experimental data on the “Walter” Manikin.},
