In 70 boys aged 7-8 and 14-15 years the temperature of the skin surface (at rest), rectal temperature, thickness of the skin-fat fold and heat loss by radiation and convection were measured. Then the mean weighted skin temperature (Ts) and body thermoinsulation (I) were calculated. The investigations were carried out stable physical conditions of the environment at the ambient temperature (Ta) of 20 degrees C. It was found that the thermoinsulatory properties of the body increased with age, while the amount of eliminated heat decreased. At the age of 7 to 15 years the value of body thermoinsulation was closely correlated to the thickness of the subcutaneous adipose tissue and significantly lower than the reported values in adult men.
对70名年龄在7 - 8岁和14 - 15岁的男孩测量了皮肤表面温度（静息时）、直肠温度、皮肤脂肪褶皱厚度以及辐射和对流散热情况。然后计算了平均加权皮肤温度（Ts）和身体隔热值（I）。研究是在环境温度（Ta）为20摄氏度的稳定物理环境条件下进行的。结果发现，身体的热绝缘特性随年龄增长而增强，而散热量减少。在7至15岁时，身体隔热值与皮下脂肪组织厚度密切相关，且显著低于成年男性的报告值。
