    Summary Two nude resting men were exposed for two-hour periods to each of 25 dry environments, with air temperatures ranging between 12.8° C and 49.1° C and wind speeds between 0.67 m/sec and 4.94 m/sec. The mean radiant temperature of the surroundings was kept equal to the air temperature. Rates of radiant and convective heat exchange were measured directly, separately and continuously. The men had reached a thermal steady state after 105 min in the warm environments, but not in the cold environments. Graphs are presented to show the effect of ambient temperature and wind speed on the radiation and convection rates attained after 105 min, as well as on metabolic rate, sweat evaporation rate, rectal temperature and mean skin temperature. These graphs revealed some important aspects of the behaviour of man's thermal control system. In particular the physiological conductance increased with increasing ambient temperature and then “saturated” at an ambient temperature near 35° C. This saturation resulted in a constant difference between rectal temperature and mean skin temperature irrespective of the environmental conditions.

    Notes:
    Summary Thermoregulation during fever is generally described in terms of a change in the level of the reference signal in the control system. This paper presents an alternative postulate, namely that during fever the thermoregulatory control centre undergoes a pyrogen-induced change in sensitivity, or gain. This postulate is supported strongly by the behaviour of thermoregulatory neurones. Febrile and afebrile thermoregulation can be described by means of a model with no reference signal at all, but with opposing warm and cold stimuli to the control centre.

    Notes:
    Summary Mean skin temperatures, rectal temperatures and sweat rates were measured on four highly acclimatised subjects. They were exposed for 180 min to 16 different combinations of 4 metabolic rates and 4 air temperatures, ranging from cold (10°C) to hot (49°C). Mean sweat rates for the second hour were plotted against mean rectal temperaturesfor 4 different levels of skin temperature and viceversa. These graphs indicate, firstly, that sweat rate does not increase until rectal temperature rises above a threshold value of 36.5°C; thereafter the increase in sweat rate depends upon the level of mean skin temperature, being greater the higher the mean skin temperature is. Secondly, sweat rate does not increase markedly until mean skin temperature rises above 33°C but the increase in sweat rate above 33°C depends upon the level of rectal temperature, being greater the higher the rectal temperature is. The interrelated effects upon sweat rate of mean skin temperature and core temperature can be explained by means of a relatively simple physiological system, comprising temperature sensors in the hypothalamus and skin, and a heat loss and a heat conservation integrating centre. Mathematical equations have been developed to express the relationships between sweat rate, core, and mean skin temperature for cool conditions, but these relationships are so complex that it is preferable to use an analogue computer for these purposes.

    Notes:
    Summary To be able to predict man's thermal response to any given environment it is essential to have a thorough understanding of man's thermo-regulatory mechanism. The mechanism is dependant on a number of highly non-linear variables. An analogue computer can be of great value with such a problem as non-linear control characteristics are easily incorporated into its programme. The computer is used as a model to reproduce man's thermal behaviour. This paper describes the application of such a computer. A number of tests were made to study some thermal control characteristics and the results are compared with those of a series of experiments performed on two resting subjects who were exposed to various environmental conditions in a climatic chamber.
