Abstract |
28 healthy male volunteers were tested in 349 climate-chamber experiments at temperatures of 10-50°C and relative humidities of 20-100%. Maximum possible levels of stabilisation were determined for rectal temperature, body heat content and heart rate during light, moderate and heavy work. These levels provide criteria for the microclimate within protective suits. The criteria were applied to an air-fed insulating suit. Permissible working times were tabulated for different combinations of effort and microclimatic conditions. |
