Human Body Temperature: Its Measurement and Regulation

摘要: The terminology used in thermal physiology is examined, and principles of heat transfer are discussed, taking into account quantity, flux, temperature, pressure, quantities physiology, a number common definitions, the equivalence between different forms energy, release potential energy living tissues, without change state, with state. Temperature humidity measurement considered along man his environment, temperature distribution systems tracts human body, physiological changes affecting distribution, problems regulation, questions loss conservation, acclimatization to cold, disorders thermoregulation. Attention given possible imaging applications, causes irregularities head neck, increased temperatures upper limbs, thermography disease. 193 references.
