The primary factors that affect body core temperature are reflected in the composite temperature known as the Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT). Bookman has been working with meteorologists and researchers on refining something called the wet bulb globe temperature equation, which is used to determine heat stress warnings and how much time people should spend working outside. Since 1956, the monitoring method has been some combination of wet bulb and globe temperature (WBGT) device, but the US Army Research Institute of Environmental Medicine has developed a hand-sized monitor that uses a database of the past 25 years' research to predict the amount of heat strain soldiers will experience, depending on their work rate, environment and clothing. |
