  2. Oct 13, 2012 · Heat exchange between the body surface of animals and the environment is explained, together with the methods of determination. The influence of body surface structures is discussed: skin, hair coat, sweat glands and sweating.

  3. Heat can be exchanged between an animal and its environment through four mechanisms: radiation, evaporation, convection, and conduction: Radiation is the transfer of heat between two bodies that are not in direct contact, via the emission of electromagnetic “heat” waves.

  4. Abstract. As a result of its metabolic activity, an animal produces heat. The rate at which heat is produced bears a direct relation to the metabolic rate measured as oxygen consumption.

  5. Oct 31, 2023 · Heat can be exchanged between an animal and its environment through four mechanisms: radiation, evaporation, convection, and conduction. Radiation is the emission of electromagnetic “heat” waves. Heat radiates from the sun and from dry skin the same manner.

  6. The four modes of heat exchange between an animal and its terrestrial environment are conduction, convection, radiation and evaporation. The rates of heat transfer (watt) by all modes are proportional to the area at which the transfer takes place.

  7. The exchange of heat between animal and environment occurs in three distinct regions, including the internal thermal region, the boundary region, and the external thermal region.

  8. May 21, 1987 · The processes of heat exchange between an animal and its surroundings can be described by appropriate transfer equations, and experimental values of the relevant parameters are available in the literature.
