Human "heat tolerance" has no accepted definition or physiological underpinnings; rather, it is almost always discussed in relative or comparative terms. We propose to use environmental limits to heat balance accounting for metabolic rate and clothing, that is, the environments for which heat stress becomes uncompensable for a specified metabolic rate and clothing, as a novel metric for quantifying heat tolerance.
人类的“耐热能力”没有公认的定义或生理基础;相反,它几乎总是在相对或比较的层面上讨论。我们建议使用环境热平衡极限来考虑代谢率和服装,即对于特定代谢率和服装来说,热应激变得无法补偿的环境,作为一种量化耐热能力的新指标。
