Abstract
Devices, systems, and methods for cooling and/or thermoregulation are disclosed, including thermoregulatory apparel. Such thermoregulatory apparel includes a cooling vest for human users to reduce their body temperature and/or to keep their body temperature below a certain value. The cooling vest may include a plurality of tubing arranged within the four-way stretch fabric used for the vest. Coolant flows through this tubing, which is arranged so that it contacts a user's skin while the user is wearing the vest. The composition and arrangement of the tubing can be matched with the type of fabric so that both the tubing and the fabric stretch in similar ways, ensuring that the tubing stays in contact with the user's skin. Also disclosed is a cartridge with a phase change material that is configured to refresh or recharge the cooling ability of the coolant when the coolant is passed through the phase change material.
