A Computer Program to Predict Energy Cost, Rectal Temperature, and Heart Rate Response to Work, Clothing, and Environment

Abstract

As a result of many years of thermal stress studies, a computer program was developed at USARIEM, Natick, Massachusetts, to predict rectal temperature and heart rate response to work, environment, and clothing. The report defines the mathematical basis of the program and presents a brief guide for its use with the HP9810A programmable calculator.
