The energy expenditure of a 2 h programme of light activity was observed daily in 8 young men after a change in habitual environmental indoor temperature of 20-24 degrees C to 34 degrees C and an absolute humidity of 6-10 g/m3 during a 10 day period. No changes were observed with respect to the daily energy intake, body weight, rectal temperature and average skin temperature, but the energy expenditure showed a decrease of between 3 and 8 per cent. The observations support results of previous studies on acclimatization with respect to energy expenditure, and indicate that differences in energy expenditure due to habitual differences in environmental temperature are small, presumably less than 5 per cent.
在10天的时间里，研究人员观察了8名年轻男性在习惯的室内环境温度从20 - 24摄氏度变为34摄氏度、绝对湿度从6 - 10克/立方米后，进行2小时轻度活动的能量消耗情况。在每日能量摄入、体重、直肠温度和平均皮肤温度方面未观察到变化，但能量消耗下降了3%至8%。这些观察结果支持了先前关于能量消耗适应方面的研究结果，并表明由于环境温度的习惯差异导致的能量消耗差异较小，可能小于5%。
