Heat stress assessment according to the wet-bulb globe temperature (WBGT) index among workers of a steel mill in 2014
Background: Heat stress in the steel industry is considered as a serious threat to the health and safety of workers. A wide spectrum of complications and diseases from mild disorders such as burning sensation to fatal conditions such as thermal shock may occur due to uncontrolled thermal stress. In this study, heat stress assessment was performed according to the wet-bulb globe temperature (WBG...
متن کاملTrend Analysis and Temporal and Spatial Distribution of Wet Bulb Globe Temperature as a Heat Stress Index in Iran during the Summer Season over a 30-Year Period
Introduction: Global warming is one of the most important environmental problems that have raised researchers’ attention. The present study aimed to analyze heat stress trends using the Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) index in the country of Iran during the summer over a 30-year period. Materials and Methods: Daily summertime statistical data regarding mean temperature and mean relative humi...

متن کاملEvaluation of wet bulb globe temperature index for estimation of heat strain in hot/humid conditions in the Persian Gulf
BACKGROUND Heat exposure among construction workers in the Persian Gulf region is a serious hazard for health. The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of wet bulb globe temperature (WBGT) Index for estimation of heat strain in hot/humid conditions by the use of Physiological Strain Index (PSI) as the gold standard. MATERIAL AND METHODS This cross-sectional study was carried out ...
متن کاملExceedance of heat index thresholds for 15 regions under a warming climate using the wet-bulb globe temperature
Thermal comfort is quantified in 15 regions using the Wet-bulb globe temperature (WBGT), examining past and future rates of thresholds exceedance corresponding to moderate, high and extreme heat (28 C, 32 C and 35 C respectively). As recent changes to thermal comfort appear to be dominated by temperature and humidity, a WBGT approximation based only on these is used. A new homogenised dataset f...
