Internal Heat Transfer in Exercising Humans reviews the topic of thermodynamics in men and women during exercise. In that regard, the DVD discusses heat balance and exchange, metabolic heat production and the transfer of heat from the body's core to the outer shell of the skin. The DVD also looks at external heat transfer in hyperthermic humans. In addition the DVD points out the drivers of external heat loss, explains how protective athletic equipment, along with environmental conditions, effects heat stress, and heat stress impacts physical performance.
Among the topics covered:
• Human heat balance
• Adiabatic exercise
• Active cutaneous vasodilation
• Research interests
• Part 2: external heat transfer in hyperthermic humans
• Body cooling power in heat
• Clothing and heat loss in the heat
• Understanding heat loss through sport and protective clothing
• Moisture management
