摘要:The influence of thermal load on oxygen debt has been investigated. The experimental data were collected on six young healthy male subjects who were naturally acclimatized to heat. They were Studied under three environmental conditions which may be classified for convenience sake as comfortable (C),hot humid (HH), and every hot humid (VHH), The subjects were given exercise on a bicycle ergometer for 6 min at 6rpm, and their oxygen consumption was measured during rest, throughout exercise period (6min) and for 30 min post-exercise period. The oxygen debt was determined at three different submaximal Workloads of 400,500 and 600 Kgm/min (equivalent 65, 82 and 98 W ) under each environmental condition. The results indicate a significant increase in oxygen debt with increase in thermal stress (p <.001) as well as workload (p <.001). Liner regression equations have been constructed as suggestive alternative method for the prediction of oxygen debt from thermal load or/and workload
