Abstract
The water vapor contained in oral expired air was collected during rest and exercise in a subarctic environment in 26 experiments on three men. Heat loss via this route was about 9% of the total energy expenditure. Water vapor loss was directly proportional to ventilation volume. An average (ß coefficient) of 32 mg of water was collected from each liter of expired air. Submitted on March 8, 1957Keywords
