説明
<jats:p> Whether whole body heat loss and thermoregulatory function (local sweat rate and skin blood flow) are different between summer and autumn and between autumn and winter seasons during exercise with different air flow in humid heat remain unknown. We therefore tested the hypotheses that whole body sweat rate (WBSR), evaporated sweat rate, and thermoregulatory function during cycling exercise in autumn would be higher than in winter but would be lower than in summer under hot-humid environment (32 C, 75% RH). We also tested the hypothesis that the increase of air velocity would enhance evaporated sweat rate and sweating efficiency across winter, summer, and autumn seasons. Eight males cycled for 1 h at 40% V̇o<jats:sub>2max</jats:sub> in winter, summer, and autumn seasons. Using an electric fan, air velocity increased from 0.2 m/s to 1.1 m/s during the final 20 min of cycling. The autumn season resulted in a lower WBSR, unevaporated sweat rate, and a higher sweating efficiency compared with summer (all P ≤ 0.05) but WBSR and unevaporated sweat rate in autumn were higher than in winter and thus sweating efficiency was lower when compared with winter only at the air velocity of 0.2 m/s (All P ≤ 0.05). Furthermore, evaporated sweat rate and core temperature ( T<jats:sub>core</jats:sub>) were not different among winter, summer, and autumn seasons (All P > 0.19). In conclusion, changes in WBSR across different seasons do not alter T<jats:sub>core</jats:sub> during exercise in a hot humid environment. Furthermore, increasing air velocity enhances evaporated sweat rate and sweating efficiency across all seasons. </jats:p>
