Abstract A mathematical model of the dynamic (periodic) heat exchange from the respiratory tract of a chicken is postulated and solved analytically. The model expresses the periodic respiratory heat loss as a function of respiration rate, respiratory air velocity, ambient temperature and humidity ratio, and body (trachea) temperature. It is unique in that previous models have been formulated for steady state heat transfer. The processes of sensible and latent heat exchange are considered as uncoupled processes.
