5. Fig. 4
Average temperature reduction plotted as a function of moisture loss rate on the support surfaces. The solid lines through these points designate the SD of the mean for that group for both temperature change and moisture loss rate. (♢), non-airflow products; (○), LAL products; (□), high-air-loss products; (♦), average non-airflow products; (●), average LAL products; (■), average high-air-loss products.
