  • Title: [Comparative evaluation of heat state in workers exposed to heating microclimate during cold and warm seasons].
    Author: Afanas'eva RF, Prokopenko LV, Kiladze NA, Konstantinov EI.
    Journal: Med Tr Prom Ekol; 2009; (12):38-41. PubMed ID: 20151600.
    Abstract:
    The authors demonstrated differences in heat state among workers exposed to heating microclimate during cold and warm seasons. Same external thermal load in cold season induces more humidity loss, lower weighted average skin temperature, higher pulse rate, increased systolic and diastolic blood pressure. With that, heat discomfort was more in cold season, than in warm one, this necessitates decrease of thermal load in cold season vs. the warm one.
