Abstract
Abstract Heat stress negatively influences human health and performance, and leading to lower efficiency in daily activities. The present study sought to examine the relationship between UTCI, other heat indices (SET, PET, PMV, PPD, and WBGT), and environmental parameters. Daily data, encompassing a 12 month period in 2016 (from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. for each day), were retrieved from the Meteorological Organization of Kerman. The data were fed into SPSS 20, followed by conducting Pearson product moment correlation and linear regression to find the association between UTCI and other heat indices/environmental parameters. Excel 2016 was also utilized to draw the relevant diagrams. Significant correlations were detected between UTCI and other heat indices (SET, PET, PMV, and WBGT). UTCI also was measurably correlated with environmental parameters like dry temperature (P
