Research Abstract |
The effect of individual variability of cardiorespiratory capacity and heat acclimatization on human physiological reaction was studied by using subjective experiments and early works. Rectal temperature in a hot environment was defined as functions of maximal oxygen uptake, metabolic rate, mean skin temperature. The effect of heat acclimatization on sweat rate and clothing wettedness was studied. The relationship between mean skin temperature and sweat rate were different around mean skin temperature of 36 degrees C.
