Modules | |
| BodySpecificHeat | |
| Specific heat of body tissue, used for the core and skin thermal capacitances. | |
| ThermoneutralCoreTemperatureLow | |
| Lower edge of the thermoneutral band. Shivering ramps up below it; it is a set point, not a hypothermia limit. | |
| ThermoneutralCoreTemperatureHigh | |
| Upper edge of the thermoneutral band. Sweating ramps up above it; it is a set point, not a hyperthermia limit. | |
| DeltaCoreTemperatureLow | |
| Width of the shivering proportional band: the drop below ThermoneutralCoreTemperatureLow over which metabolic rate ramps from basal to the summit metabolism. | |
| EnergyPerATP | |
| Energy released per mole of ATP consumed. | |
| SweatHeatTransfer | |
| Gain of the sweating controller: evaporative power commanded per degree of core temperature above ThermoneutralCoreTemperatureHigh. Divided by VaporizationEnergy to give a sweat rate. | |
| VaporizationEnergy | |
| Latent heat of vaporization of water at skin temperature. Converts sweat mass to evaporative cooling in both the energy and environment models. | |
| MaximumSweatRate | |
| Ceiling on the whole body sweat rate, where the sweat glands saturate. | |
