Application of the relative summary climatic indices during work in heat for ergonomic purposes / M. Hubac... [et al.]
Sumario: A new method was elaborated for the evaluation of work-heat load. Two indices of heat stress were introduced, the so called "climatic heat"-Hcl (a sum of convective radiation, respiration and maximum evaporation heat), and the "total heat"-Htot (a sum of metabolic and climatic heat). It is an adapted thermal balance equation in which the evaporation heat was replaced with maximum evaporation heat
