Abstract

The described equivalence postulate was confirmed experimentally by examining physiological responses as well as discomfort sensation in a series of predicted equivalent conditions during exercise (congruent to 3 met). ET or the equivalent Ta at 50% RH is a single independent variable that is uniquely related to the mean skin temperature (Tsk), skin wettedness (w), body core temperature (Tcore) and sense of discomfort.
