By introduction of an additional compartment in the hypothalamic region Stolwijk's thermoregulatory model has been modified to consider partial heating due to hot spots induced by microwaves. It was found that because of thermoregulatory action, the temperature of the hypothalamus will not increase drastically until the rate of energy deposition exceeds the threshold level of about 50 mW/g. The primary controlling mechanisms are blood flow and sweating. For an energy deposition rate of 10 mW/g in the hypothalamus the increase in blood flow in the skin is negligible and the temperature rise of the hypothalamus as compared with blood temperature is about 0.5 degrees C. It was found that exposure of the head to electromagnetic radiation, in general, causes a decrease in temperature of the trunk and skin. The results show that while the deposition of energy in the hypothalamus at the rate of 10 mW/g produced significant conductive and convective effects, the same total energy uniformly distributed over the cranial cavity produces less significant effects.
通过在下丘脑区域引入一个额外的隔室，斯托尔wijk的体温调节模型已被修改，以考虑微波诱导的热点引起的局部加热。研究发现，由于体温调节作用，在下丘脑能量沉积速率超过约50 mW/g的阈值水平之前，下丘脑的温度不会急剧升高。主要的控制机制是血流和出汗。在下丘脑能量沉积速率为10 mW/g时，皮肤中的血流增加可以忽略不计，与血液温度相比，下丘脑的温度升高约为0.5摄氏度。研究发现，一般来说，头部暴露于电磁辐射会导致躯干和皮肤温度下降。结果表明，虽然在下丘脑中以10 mW/g的速率沉积能量会产生显著的传导和对流效应，但相同的总能量均匀分布在颅腔内产生的效应较小。
