dc.description.abstract	Improving the performances of a firefighter protective clothing requires a better understanding of the conjugated thermal exchanges in the ambient-garment-body assembly [1]. As the protective clothing is believed to ensure, as long as possible, a skin temperature below the injury threshold, it is mandatory to quantify accurately the instantaneous thermal loadings provided by the fire source. Indeed, protective garments are commonly designed for incoming heat flux values that are recorded during isolated tests, under quasi-steady fire conditions [2]. Moreover, the scarce unsteady investigations devoted to heat flux predictions are based on presumed temporal laws for fire heat release and do not account for natural or mechanical ventilation effects on fire development.	pt_PT
