This adjustment procedure was applied using the "segmented" package under R software.
Evaporative heat loss was omitted because the laboratory was not equipped to measure the saturated water vapor pressure at skin temperature or the water vapor pressure of ambient air, and evaporative heat loss data of the type needed for use in the segmented method could not be acquired from the literature.
To reiterate, we did not estimate evaporative heat loss because the laboratory was not equipped to measure the saturated water vapor pressure at skin temperature or the water vapor pressure of ambient air, and evaporative heat loss data of the type needed for use in the segmented method could not be acquired from the literature.
Four estimates were also generated with the segmented method using the same Ta values as were used to generate the conventional method estimates.
This is because the same skin temperature values were used with both the conventional method and the segmented method.
The fourth aspect of our study that has the potential to affect the reliability of its results is the use of cylinders to represent all the segments of the body in the segmented method.
Table 2 presents the estimated surface areas of the segments into which the body is divided in the segmented method.
Those yielded by the segmented method are significantly lower than those produced by the conventional method.
The segmented method was developed specifically for the study reported here.
Generating a heat balance estimate with the segmented method involves five steps.
We also compared the mean total surface areas of the two samples as determined by the segmented method.
