Abstract
Work now in progress on the biological effects of high intensity 10-cm microwave fields has been accompanied by studies on heat exchange characteristics of rats, rabbits, and dogs irradiated under relatively free field conditions. These studies include measurements of field intensity and distribution as well as of body temperatures. Determination of initial heating rates, steady-state body temperatures, and cooling rates permitted estimation of thermal characteristics including absorption and certain heat exchange parameters as an aid in interpretation of biological effects.Keywords
