Abstract
The application of conductive cooling for men working in different systems is discussed with respect to work load, heat stress, and clothing. Two types of conductive cooling are considered: circulating water, and ice. A brief review of the effects of whole and partial body cooling on the responses of man to heat stress serves as a basis for suggestions about desirable types of cooling which would allow the human operator to maintain satisfactory performance for extended periods.
