EFFECTS OF DISCRETE SKIN COOLING ON BODY TEMPERATURE AND SWEAT PRODUCTION DURING MODERATE HEAT STRESS.

Abstract

Physiological responses to moderate heat stress were studied in a heat chamber for periods of 2 hours. Five conditions were established (two control series and three cooling series). Measured variables included heart rate, sweat produced, and rectal temperature. Thirty-eight experiments were done, involving eight subjects. The data were subjected to both conventional statistical analysis and computer techniques. (Author)
