In their investigations, scientists have examined the amount of heat tolerance by the human body. According to them, a young person can survive for up to 6 hours at a temperature of about 35 degrees Celsius and 100% humidity.
According to Tekna’s technology and technology news service, new research by researchers shows that different people have different tolerance thresholds against heat and humidity. According to the Science Alert website, when the air temperature reaches 35 degrees Celsius with 100% humidity, evaporation from the skin will stop completely. At this time, many dangers threaten the human body. For example, a person may face problems such as heart attack, organ failure, and finally death. This condition that occurs at 35 degrees Celsius is called wet bubble temperature.
Recent research shows that the temperature of the moist bubble is also lethal without the presence of very high temperature. So far, only a few cases of this phenomenon have been seen in areas such as the Persian Gulf and South Asia. Of course, the time of this phenomenon was only about two hours. According to experts, a very high temperature is not needed to damage the body, and several factors such as age, physical and health, factors such as social and economic conditions can determine the tolerance level of people against heat.
According to the experiment of scientists of the University of Pennsylvania, the tolerance threshold of people in conditions such as 35 degrees Celsius and 100 degrees humidity for healthy and young participants was about 30.6 degrees Celsius, which is called the critical environmental threshold. At this threshold, the body’s ability to prevent excessive temperature increase will stop and the body’s internal temperature will rise sharply.
