This preprint studied whether evaporative microclimate interval cooling using Dry Air Comfort (DAC) can prevent heat stress during work-rest cycles in men wearing thermally insulating protective overalls. In a balanced within-subject design, twelve healthy men performed repeated treadmill walking and load handling under warm climate chamber conditions, either with continuously warm exposure or with conditioned dehumidified air delivered into an undergarment during rest periods. Interval cooling allowed all participants to complete exposure without core temperatures exceeding 38.0°C, alongside greater heart-rate recovery and lower heat burden metrics, whereas eight participants terminated the permanently warm condition due to high core temperatures, exhaustion, or reaching 90% of maximum individual heart rate. A key limitation noted by the authors is that the study used only twelve healthy men and a controlled climate-chamber protocol with specific work/rest timing. The paper does not explicitly discuss endometriosis or adenomyosis; it was included in the corpus via a keyword match in the upstream search index.

As a consequence, metabolic heat can increase body core temperature rapidly, which can result in life-threatening heat illnesses. The evaporative microclimate cooling method Dry Air Comfort (DAC) has been shown to be very effective for reducing the risk of heat induced illnesses. Aim of this study was to determine whether DAC can also prevent heat stress when used in intervals. Methods Using a balanced within-subject design twelve men in protective overalls were randomly assigned (max. 205 min, 25 °C, 50 % relative humidity/RH, 0.2 m/s wind speed) to a work-rest schedule (5x20 min work respectively rest each; work: treadmill, 3 km/h, 5 % incline; handling of loads) without (permanently warm condition) and with insufflating conditioned air (30 °C, << 3 % RH, 600 l/min) into an air-diffusing undergarment during rest periods (interval cooling condition). Results In the interval cooling condition all participants tolerated the whole exposure time never exceeding a core temperature of 38.0 °C. In contrast, in the permanently warm condition eight subjects had to terminate work because of high core temperatures (39 °C, n = 5), subjective exhaustion or reaching 90 % of the maximum individual heart rate (HR; n = 3). HR decline was significantly more pronounced during rest periods during interval cooling, indicating significant recovery: e.g., 105.1±17.0 b/min vs. 149.7±15.5 b/min (rest 4, 165. min vs. work 4, 145. min, n = 12). During permanently warm HR showed only minor recovery: e.g., 138.4±15.0 b/min vs. 158.7±12.3 b/min (rest 4, 165. min vs. work 4, 145. min, n = 8) and exceeded the level of HR in rest periods of interval cooling. All other parameters (core/skin temperatures, ratings of perceived exertion, heat burden) indicated significantly lower heat stress and distinctive heat dissipation during rests in the interval cooling. Conclusions Interval heat evaporation during rests periods with the microclimate cooling method DAC was shown to be effective in preventing body heat accumulation during alternating work-rest cycles. The method can improve occupational health and safety of men working in thermal protective clothing. exertional heat illness heat stress sweat evaporation microclimate interval cooling Dry Air Comfort (DAC) Figures Figure 1 Figure 2 Figure 3 Introduction Industrial workers, fire fighters, and military personnel often have to wear protective clothing (e.g., CBRN) while performing physical demanding tasks. The combination of physical work, weight, stiffness, and movement restrictions of the equipment results in a massive increase of the metabolic rate and, consequently, heat production [ 1 , 2 ]. At the same time, thermal insulation of this clothing limits heat dissipation, particularly by minimizing sweat evaporation. The resulting heat stress increases the rate of body heat storage, reduces physical performance, and can lead to exertional heat illness [ 3 – 6 ]. This risk also affects people working for public health services, e.g. in the treatment of patients with severe viral infectious diseases (e.g., Ebola, Corona; [ 7 , 8 ]). Exertional heat illnesses are an occupational health and safety risk for many occupations. Even in its least severe form it can be associated with heat cramps, often accompanied by increased sweating, fatigue and increased thirst [ 3 , 9 , 10 ]. Heat exhaustion is a more serious form which can result from prolonged exposure to heat coupled with physical exertion and/ or unfavourable working conditions, e.g. insulating protective suits and the symptoms may include nausea, vomiting, dizziness, bradycardia, tachycardia, headache and low blood pressure [ 3 , 10 ]. If the precipitating conditions continue, exertional heat stroke (EHS) can develop unpredictably. EHS is a life-threatening emergency that requires immediate medical treatment. EHS manifests itself as multi-organ failure due to generalized tissue damage and is associated with high mortality if left untreated. [ 3 , 5 , 11 , 12 ]. Work-time limitations are a common occupational prevention measure to reduce the risk of heat related illnesses. Occupational safety in heat stress prone work may require a reduction in, work time, in some situations, to less than 30 minutes. Various microclimate cooling devices have been designed to reduce heat stress [ 13 ]. In certain conditions (e.g., short term work) these cooling devices can provide a temporary mitigation heat illness risk [ 14 ]. However, all such devices have some degree of physiological, physical and/or technical limitations. One approach is to dissipate body heat by conduction. This can be achieved by using ice packs or other phase change materials (PCMs) [ 15 – 17 ] in cooling vests, or by, circulating precooled liquids [ 18 , 19 ]. The major drawback of this method is vasoconstriction which impedes blood flow to the skin and thereby heat dissipation [ 20 ]. Intermittent cooling regimes at 2-minute intervals or control systems regulating the temperature of the circulating liquids have been considered to impede the reduction of cutaneous perfusion [ 21 , 22 ]. The most promising approach for microclimate cooling from a physiological and sustainable point of view is to enhance sweat evaporation. It is the most effective physiological mechanism for maintaining effective heat balance in the heat. Passive techniques (i.e. design of clothing) employing sweat evaporation promote genuine convection [ 23 ]. Equipment, which actively supplies protective clothing with ambient air through fans, is also available [ 14 , 24 ]. However, evaporation requires a sufficient humidity gradient between the microclimate within the clothing and the ambient climate. Furthermore, hybrid systems combining two technologies, e.g., combining ventilation fans and PCM, have been developed to compensate for the drawbacks of each approach [ 25 , 26 ]. An optimized solution for sweat evaporation and, thus, for physiological body cooling has already been reported [ 27 ]. This method, Dry Air Comfort (DAC), avoids the disadvantage of ambient air. With this technique, the microclimate of thermally insulating protective clothing is supplied with a flow of dehumidified and tempered air provided by a compressor. This approach has proven to be very effective in enhancing sweat evaporation and, to a minor extent, convective heat loss. This results in lower heart rates as well as core and skin temperatures. Thus, previously limited work-time schedules can be significantly extended. Its use is confined to stationary workplaces as a flexible hose connecting the device to the person is required. For mobile use, an interval cooling strategy with DAC could be the solution enabling work unhindered by a hose and would take cooling breaks at predetermined times. For cooling, personnel would be connected to a stationary compressor during rest periods with no need to remove their protective clothing. The aim of the current study was to test the applicability and the effectiveness of this strategy within a work-rest schedule adapted to a real work situation. The assumption was that evaporative heat loss during rest periods prevents the accumulation of body heat and, consequently, exertional heat illness. If effective, the evaporation method could not only improve occupational health and safety for working tasks in thermally insulating protective clothing that require freedom of movement, it also would allow longer work times. Methods In the present study a within-subject-repeated-measure design was used to test effects of an interval microclimate cooling strategy. Measurements and calculations were generally the same as those applied in a previous study in which the method “Dry Air Comfort” (DAC) was introduced [ 27 ]. Participants Twelve healthy male participants who gave their informed written consent were included in this study. The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Medical Association of the Federal State Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany [reference number 837.526.13 (9211), 15.04.2014]. All study participants were informed about the procedure in detail and underwent a medical examination, including resting and exercise ECG before the first test was carried out. A further medical interview or, if deemed necessary by the physician overseeing medical safety (medical supervisor), a medical check-up was conducted before the follow-up test. Table 1 describes the biometric characteristics of the study participants. Table 1 Biometric characteristics of the twelve participants. Variable M ± SD Age (years) 24.0 ± 5.2 Body mass (kg) 77.1 ± 11.3 Body height (cm) 178.6 ± 3.4 BMI (kg/m 2 ) 24.2 ± 3.5 Note: Values are means ± standard deviations (M ± SD). Evaporative microclimate cooling (Dry Air Comfort - DAC) As part of the Dry Air Comfort (DAC) process, dehumidified air was generated using a stationary compressor. This air was directed through a hose to an air-diffusing undergarment (Dry Air Comfort-Suit, DAC-S). With an outlet temperature of 30°C and a relative humidity (RH) of < < 3%, the ventilation rate was 600 l/min. At 30°C and normal pressure, the maximum water vapor absorption rate is approximately 1120 ml/h [ 28 ]. DAC-S was an improved version of the previously described suit [ 27 ] which was worn between underwear and an impermeable protective clothing. It was designed as a jumpsuit made of a three-dimensional space knitted fabric (Müllertextil™, No. 5952, thickness 10 mm) with a lining on the outside. A stellate hose system for air distribution was implemented in the suit. This system provides dry air ventilation for selected body areas such as the chest, back, upper arms, forearms, thighs, and calves, with high perspiration or high evaporation heat dissipation [ 29 – 32 ]. Climate chamber, protocol and study design The climate conditions of the study were 25°C (air temperature = radiation temperature), 50% RH and 0.2 m/s wind speed, implemented in a climatic chamber (Weiss Technik™ Typ 26’ US/15…+40JU, Weiss Umwelttechnik GmbH, Germany). The protocol started with a 5-minute initial rest period (start). This was followed by a sequence of five work and rest periods of 20 min each. During rest, the participants stood in an upright position. The total test time was 205 min. Work was performed on a treadmill (h/p cosmos™ pulsar 3P 4.0, h/p cosmos™ sports & medical GmbH, Germany) with a speed of 3 km/h at a 5% incline. While walking the participants simulated typical decontamination activities, that were identified in an on-site analysis. These tasks included carrying (period: 4:20 min) a jerrycan (weight: 10 kg), simulating decontamination tasks (period: 4:10 min) by repositioning metal cylinders/cuboids (weights: 190 g, 590 g, 670 g), and handling (period: 5:00 min) a decontamination lance model (weight: 1.5 kg). The workload and duration of working periods were based on a conservative assessment of the tolerance time and were assessed by means of an on-site task-analysis in a real work situation [ 33 ]. The durations of the rest and work periods were adjusted to achieve alternating work and rest sessions. Tests were conducted at the same time of day and at least one week apart. Each participant performed the test runs using the same protocol under two conditions. Control condition: ‘perm. warm' permanently warm, i.e., no cooling provided during the whole test protective clothing (without DAC-S) Test condition: ’inter. cool’ interval cooling, i.e., cooling during the ‘start’ and ‘rest’ periods protective clothing (incl. DAC-S) The order of the two test conditions was balanced across participants and randomly assigned (randomised controlled trial, RCT). Full clothing and protective equipment Participants wore tight-fitting, commercially available, long functional underwear (Odlo Evolution light) under a thermally insulating and water vapour impermeable chemical protective overall made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) (Isotemp™ Acid Stop 4007/P). The suit had a large hood. To counteract convection during the test, the openings for the legs and arms were form-fitted closed. For leakage of the insufflated air after passing through the undergarment, valves were installed in the hood of the ventilated overalls. The subjects' equipment included boots, acid protection gloves, and a full-face mask with a turbine of the ergospirometry system (instead of the filter). The weight of the full clothing, protective equipment and the measuring equipment was 7.9 kg. The additional DAC-S used only in the interval cooling condition increased the total load to 11.2 kg. Measurements and calculations A Polar™ monitoring system (H7, S810i, Polar Protrainer 5, V 5.41.002; Polar Electro Oy, Finland) was used to record heart rates. The data were averaged in 60 s intervals. A mobile ergospirometry system (CORTEX MetaMax™ 3 BR2, CORTEX Biophysik GmbH, Germany) was used to record spiroergometric data (VO 2 , VCO 2 ) breath-by-breath. The measurements were averaged over 60 s intervals. The metabolic rates were calculated via indirect calorimetry. Core temperatures were quantified with a CorTemp™ wireless core body temperature monitoring system (sensor HT150002, recorder 150016; HQ, Inc., USA). The participants swallowed this ‘thermal pill’ at least 3 hours before test start. Data were recorded three times per minute and averaged over 60 s intervals. The skin temperatures at four skin sites (chest, upper arm, thigh, lower leg) were measured with YSI™ 400 compatible sensors (thermistors) and recorded twelve times per minute with a data logger (Ahlborn™ 2590, Ahlborn Mess- und Regeltechnik GmbH, Germany). From these measurements mean weighted skin temperatures (0.3 T chest + 0.3 T upper arm + 0.2 T thigh + 0.2 T lower leg ) were calculated according to Ramanathan [ 34 ] and averaged over 60 s intervals. Water consumption before the test was encouraged to ensure adequate hydration. A maximum of 500 ml of water was offered during both second and fourth rest periods in both conditions. The water temperature was 38°C to ensure that the measurement conditions of the thermal pill was not altered. Participants were free to drink as much of the 500 ml as they desired. Amount of water consumed was recorded for calculation of sweat balance. Each participant was weighed before and after testing without clothes on a personal scale (Soehnle™ professional 2790, Soehnle-Waagen GmbH, Germany) to assess sweat balance. Weights of the protective clothing and the DAC-S were collected simultaneously using a hanging scale (Kern™ HDB5K5, Kern & Sohn GmbH, Germany), while weights of lighter clothing articles were ascertained with a precision scale (Sauter™ S 4000/ T1, August Sauter KG, Germany). The weight changes, corrected for respiratory water loss and weight differences between exhaled CO 2 and O 2 intake [ 35 ], were used for the calculation of total sweat loss, sweat accumulated in clothing, and sweat evaporation. The percentage of sweat evaporation relative to sweat loss was set as evaporation rate. A heat flux of 2400 kJ/kg sweat was predefined to calculate the evaporative heat loss. Participants reported ratings of perceived exertion (RPE) using the Borg scale (‘6’ to ‘20’) [ 36 , 37 ] at the end of the work and rest periods. At the same time, self-perceived heat burden was assessed with a standardised rating scale [ 38 ]: ‘very hot’ (4), ‘hot’ (3), ‘warm’ (2), ‘slightly warm’ (1), ‘neutral’ (0), ‘slightly cool’ (-1), ‘cool’ (-2), ‘cold’ (-3), ‘very cold’ (-4). Test termination Tests were terminated by the medical supervisor if any of the following medical termination criteria were met for the physiological parameters monitored online: 90% of the maximum individual heart rate on the initial exercise ECG core temperature of 39°C [ 39 ] Participants were free to terminate the test at any time (e.g. in case of subjective exhaustion). Prematurely ended tests can be recognised as a reduced number of participants in the figures and tables of results. Statistical analysis For the statistical analyses SPSS™ 22 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA) and STATISTICA™ 12.0 (StatSoft Inc., Tulsa, OK, USA) were used. The time courses of heart rate, spiroergometric data, core temperature, and mean weighted skin temperature were analysed by two-way ANOVA for repeated measures (factors: ‘ventilation’ and ‘exercise time’). For post hoc comparisons, the Newman-Keuls test was applied. T-tests were used to evaluate differences between parameters of sweat balance, RPE, and ratings of self-perceived heat burden. Differences with p ≤ 0.05 were considered as significant. Results Test procedure All twelve participants successfully completed the interval cooling condition (inter. cool) after 205 min. In the permanently warm condition (perm. warm), eight participants terminated the tests prematurely for preventive medical reasons or because of subjective exhaustion (Table 2 ). Table 2 Timing and reasons for eight test terminations of the twelve participants in the permanently warm control condition. last test minute (min) reason for test termination 115. subjective exhaustion 125. core temperature of 39°C 125. core temperature of 39°C 136. subjective exhaustion 165. core temperature of 39°C 165. core temperature of 39°C 165. core temperature of 39°C 165. 90% of maximum individual heart rate Heart rates With advanced numbers of work periods, the heart rates in the interval cooling condition were characterised by a significantly lower strain, in contrast to the permanently warm condition (Fig. 1 ). The pronounced recovery of the first rest period in the interval cooling condition occurred during each subsequent rest cycle. The heart rates (M ± SD) at the end of the cooled rest periods varied between 99.6 ± 11.9 b/min (rest 1, 45. min, n = 12) and 105.9 ± 16.5 b/min (rest 5, 205. min, n = 12). In contrast, the heart rates of the warm rest periods exceeded those of the cooled rest periods and showed only minor differences between work and rest. At the end of the warm rest periods, the heart rates of the continuing participants remained elevated compared with those in the previous work periods: e.g., 138.4 ± 15.0 b/min. vs. 158.7 ± 12.3 b/min (rest 4, 165. min vs. work 4, 145. min, n = 8) and 140.2 ± 7.1 b/min vs. 158.3 ± 7.2 b/min (rest 5, 205. min vs. work 5, 185. min, n = 4). The decrease in heart rates of all participants was greater during rest periods in the interval cooling condition, indicating a substantial recovery: e.g., 105.1 ± 17.0 b/min vs. 149.7 ± 15.5 b/min (rest 4, 165. min vs. work 4, 145. min, n = 12) and 105.9 ± 16.5 b/min vs. 150.1 ± 16.9 b/min (rest 5, 205. min vs. work 5, 185. min, n = 12). Metabolic rates The metabolic rates of the participants did not significantly differ (p > 0.05) between the two conditions during the time period 0. – 115. min. (During this period, no participants terminated the tests.) The rates (M ± SD, n = 12) were 315 ± 51 W (perm. warm) and 316 ± 48 W (inter. cool). Thermal parameters In the interval cooling condition, the participants never exceeded a maximum core temperature of 38.0°C. From beginning of the third work period onwards, core temperatures in the permanently warm control condition were significantly higher than in the interval cooling condition. This trend continued even though data from five participants who had to terminate the test reaching a core temperature of 39°C (Table 2 ) could not be analysed. The mean weighted skin temperatures according to Ramanathan [ 34 ], increased continuously in the permanently warm condition (Fig. 3 ). During rest periods, skin temperatures did not recover to the level observed prior to the previous work period. The results in the interval cooling condition differed significantly from those of the control (p ≤ 0.001). Mean skin temperatures also increased steeply during nonventilated work periods but decreased abruptly during rest periods. The maximum skin temperatures during work periods did not increase any further. The minimum skin temperatures (M ± SD, n = 12) reached at the end of the cooled rest periods did not significantly differ (rest 1, 45. min: 33.4 ± 0.8°C; rest 2, 85. min: 33.2 ± 0.7°C; rest 3, 125. min: 33.2 ± 0.7°C; rest 4, 165. min: 33.2 ± 0.8°C; rest 5, 205. min: 33.2 ± 0.7°C; p > 0.05). There was no difference in the total amount of sweat (Table 3 ) between the two conditions (p > 0.05). However, the amount of evaporated sweat significantly differed (p ≤ 0.001). The evaporation rate in the interval cooling condition was 73% compared to 13% in the control condition. Table 3. Sweat balance and amounts of evaporative heat loss with permanently warm (perm. warm) and interval-cooled (inter. cool) thermally insulating protective clothing during the tests. Notes: Values are means ± standard deviations (M ± SD); n = 12. Statistically significant differences (stat. diff.) are marked (***: p ≤ 0.001). All participants drank water during the second rest period in both tests. During the fourth rest period, the remaining eight participants in the permanently warm condition and all participants in the interval cooling condition consumed water. The total amounts of water differed significantly between the two conditions (perm. warm: 647±276 ml vs. 870±187 ml, inter. cool, p ≤ 0.05). Self-perceived exertion and heat burden Ratings of perceived exertion (RPE) between 7.3±1.0 and 8.7±2.6 during rest periods in the interval cooling condition documented substantial relief provided by cooling (Table 4). In contrast, RPE of the permanently warm tests varied between 9.5±2.3 and 13.3±4.1 during rest periods in the permanently warm control condition. Table 4. Ratings of perceived exertion (RPE) with the Borg scale (‘6’ to ‘20’) at the end of each period of the work-rest schedule on a treadmill in a climatic chamber with permanently warm (perm. warm) and interval-cooled (inter. cool) thermally insulating protective clothing. Notes: Values are means ± standard deviations (M ± SD). The number of participants varied von n = 12 to n = 4 due to test terminations in the permanently warm condition (*: p ≤ 0.05; **: p ≤ 0.01; ***: p ≤ 0.001). The low ratings of perceived heat burden ‘slightly cool’ - ‘cool’ during rest periods proved the thermal relief provided by the cooled rests in the interval cooling condition (Table 5). The thermal strain in the permanently warm condition was clearly documented by the opposite indications during the rest periods in the range between ‘slightly warm’ - ‘warm’ - ‘hot’. Table 5.

Notes: Values are means ± standard deviations (M ± SD). The number of participants varied von n = 12 to n = 4 due to test terminations in the permanently warm condition (***: p ≤ 0.001; ᴓ: Statistical analysis at the time ‘work 5’ was not applicable since the standard error of the difference presented the value ‘0’.). Discussion The interval cooling strategy of insufflating dehumidified air into the microclimate during rest periods has proven to be effective for thermal relief in insulating protective clothing: all twelve participants completed an exposure time of 205 minutes, while only four of them tolerated heat stress in the permanently warm condition. The participants had the same metabolic rates and corresponding identical metabolic heat productions in both conditions. Due to the clothing insulation, heat dissipation was restricted, resulting in heat stress in both variants. However, the core temperatures remained markedly below 38.5°C in the ventilated version. This temperature is considered the exposure limit in a real work situation to avoid exertional heat illnesses [ 39 , 40 ]. There was no evidence of an exacerbated accumulation of body heat or an increase in heat stress to the individual limits of heat tolerance in the interval cooling condition. The effects of increasing body heat storage resulting in uncompensated heat stress were obvious in the permanently warm control condition: the convergence of mean weighted skin temperatures and the core temperatures was an expression of the restricted thermoregulatory capacity to compensate for this heat burden [ 41 ]. As a consequence, five tests had to be terminated because participants met the core temperature limit of 39.0°C as a preventive exposure limit for healthy personnel under medical supervision [ 39 ]. McLellan and Havenith emphasised the restricted heat transfer from the body to the environment, especially by the impairment of sweat evaporation, as the main cause of heat storage in protective clothing [ 33 ]. They highlighted that military protective clothing in particular (for example, in the context of biological and chemical defence) increases the problem of permeability due to a thicker layer of clothing in comparison to civilian equipment. Our results from the interval cooling condition could therefore not only lead to significantly improved military performance, but also for civilian use with comparable clothing. The reduction of heat stress with the interval cooling is also strongly confirmed by heart rates, which are an indicator of physiological strain. During each ventilated rest period, heart rates decreased, and recovery was sufficient to complete the entire test, such that no participant in the interval cooling condition had to terminate the tests prematurely due to increased heart rates. In contrast, heart rates of participants in the permanently warm control condition increased continuously with each additional work period, indicating a substantial increase in exhaustion. Rest periods did not result in any substantial recovery. The decrease in mean weighted skin temperatures during rest periods in our study confirmed the significant heat dissipation in the interval cooling condition without removing the thermally insulating protective clothing. However, minimum skin temperatures in this evaporative interval study did not fall below 33°C, minimizing the occurrence of vasoconstriction, which is usually expected below 32–33°C [ 42 , 43 ]. The selected ventilation parameters (outlet temperature, RH and ventilation rate of the insufflated air) maintaining the vascular regulation that occurs during heat stress with vasodilation and increased blood flow to improve heat dissipation. Otherwise, the effect of sympathetic noradrenergic vasoconstrictor nerves reduces skin blood flow, leading to an extended insulation of the tissue and a reduction in heat loss [ 44 , 45 ]. Hence, during studies of conductive heat a 2-minute intermittent cooling regime has been applied dissipation to avoid excessively low skin temperatures [ 22 ]. Adhering to the 33°C limit in this interval cooling study also confirms that 20 min is suitable as a rest period. Longer cooling periods are not necessary, since heat dissipation is sufficient, and further decreases in skin temperature could cause vasoconstriction. On the other hand, shortening would be insufficient since accumulating body heat storage will probably lead to an increase in core temperature and maximum skin temperature, reducing physical performance and extending the danger of exertional heat illness. To ensure sufficient sweat evaporation during rest periods, physical conditions of ventilation must be adequate. In this study insufflated air was used at intervals (rest periods, 105 min vs. 100 min, work periods) and 73% of the total sweat amount was evaporated. This can be considered as successful because continuous ventilation (600 l/min at 25°C, 130 min exposure time) in the previous study resulted in an evaporation rate of 82%, which was not substantial higher [ 27 ]. The increase in the insufflated air temperature to 30°C during the present study contributed to the successful heat dissipation. Under normal pressure, the water vapor absorption volume at 600 l/min is approximately 842 ml/h at 25°C and 1120 ml/h at 30°C [ 28 ]. This increase enables a sufficient evaporation during the 20-minute rest periods, preventing excessive body heat accumulation. Due to the temperature gradient between the insufflated air (30°C) and the mean weighted skin temperatures (> 33°C), an additional amount of of heat dissipation by convection must be considered. A certain proportion of heat emission through thermal radiation must also be taken into account. Both effects are desirable because they provide additional pathways for heat loss. Overall, evaporative (192 ± 26 W, M ± SD, n = 12), convective and thermal radiant heat loss were sufficient to attain the required thermal relief of a total metabolic rate of 316 ± 48 W (M ± SD, n = 12). Interval cooling also positively affects subjective perceptions of exertion and heat burden. With increasing exposure time, participants in our study reported significantly lower ratings, particularly during cooled rest periods, compared to the permanently warm control condition. Indeed, subjective ratings of perceived heat burden were within the ‘slightly cool’/ ‘cool’ area during the rest periods. From a physiological point of view this is not an indication that the ventilation temperature was too low, because the cooling capacity of the DAC method was moderate, as the critical skin temperature for the onset of vasoconstriction was never undercut (see above). All parameters indicate that the participants were able to compensate for heat burden in the interval cooling condition because evaporative heat loss during rest periods was effective in preventing accumulation of body heat. In addition, to this result, a prolongation of predefined exposure time of 205 min would have been possible without endangering participants’ health. The safety level of the microclimate cooling system DAC in the event of long-term application could be further increased by adding an individualised physiological monitoring system [ 46 – 48 ]. Even with successful application of the interval cooling strategy, a detailed analysis of single parameters during the first work period (heart rate, core and mean weighted skin temperature) suggests further potential for optimisation because the air-diffusing undergarment (DAC-S) extends the thermal isolation as an additional clothing layer. The DAC-S insulation should be less to avoid this drawback at the beginning of work before the advantages of the microclimate cooling occur with increasing metabolic heat production. As sweat production is the essential prerequisite for evaporation, the fluid balance must be adjusted through a sufficient drinking regime. In the present study, the participants showed a dehydration in both test conditions, as measured by the differences between the amounts of sweating and drinking. As a result, the participants’ fluid intake should be increased and adjusted to the sweat loss of 1350 ± 347 ml during an exposure time of 205 min in the interval cooling condition of this study. A limitation of our study is that only male test subjects were included. Further studies of female participants would be necessary to determine any gender differences. Conclusions Evaporative heat loss is the most effective way of heat dissipation even with thermally insulated protective clothing, which is further enhanced by DAC microclimate cooling to prevent body heat accumulation and diminish the risk of life-threatening exertional heat illnesses. This study demonstrated the applicability of this microclimate cooling method with an interval strategy for tasks requiring freedom of movement, such as industrial work or military operations. Wearers of thermally insulating protective clothing can work with full mobility and without a restricting hose for cooling purposes. In a real work situation, the effectiveness of personnel exposed to heat stress in protective clothing can be improved by an alternating work-rest schedule at a ratio of 1:1. During cooling breaks, work can be performed by personnel who have previously used the microclimate cooling facility. Thus, interval cooling reduces the time-consuming and labour-intensive dressing and undressing of protective clothing. As the tolerance time for overall heat exposure can be substantially extended, the required number of personnel can be reduced. In particular, the preventive medical aspect, namely the avoidance of heat illness, is taken into account. Abbreviations All uncommon abbreviations are introduced when mentioned in the manuscript.

Due to the clothing insulation, heat dissipation was restricted, resulting in heat stress in both variants. However, the core temperatures remained markedly below 38.5\u0026deg;C in the ventilated version. This temperature is considered the exposure limit in a real work situation to avoid exertional heat illnesses [\u003cspan citationid=\"CR39\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e39\u003c/span\u003e, \u003cspan citationid=\"CR40\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e40\u003c/span\u003e]. There was no evidence of an exacerbated accumulation of body heat or an increase in heat stress to the individual limits of heat tolerance in the interval cooling condition.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe effects of increasing body heat storage resulting in uncompensated heat stress were obvious in the permanently warm control condition: the convergence of mean weighted skin temperatures and the core temperatures was an expression of the restricted thermoregulatory capacity to compensate for this heat burden [\u003cspan citationid=\"CR41\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e41\u003c/span\u003e]. As a consequence, five tests had to be terminated because participants met the core temperature limit of 39.0\u0026deg;C as a preventive exposure limit for healthy personnel under medical supervision [\u003cspan citationid=\"CR39\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e39\u003c/span\u003e].\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMcLellan and Havenith emphasised the restricted heat transfer from the body to the environment, especially by the impairment of sweat evaporation, as the main cause of heat storage in protective clothing [\u003cspan citationid=\"CR33\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e33\u003c/span\u003e]. They highlighted that military protective clothing in particular (for example, in the context of biological and chemical defence) increases the problem of permeability due to a thicker layer of clothing in comparison to civilian equipment. Our results from the interval cooling condition could therefore not only lead to significantly improved military performance, but also for civilian use with comparable clothing.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe reduction of heat stress with the interval cooling is also strongly confirmed by heart rates, which are an indicator of physiological strain. During each ventilated rest period, heart rates decreased, and recovery was sufficient to complete the entire test, such that no participant in the interval cooling condition had to terminate the tests prematurely due to increased heart rates. In contrast, heart rates of participants in the permanently warm control condition increased continuously with each additional work period, indicating a substantial increase in exhaustion. Rest periods did not result in any substantial recovery.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe decrease in mean weighted skin temperatures during rest periods in our study confirmed the significant heat dissipation in the interval cooling condition without removing the thermally insulating protective clothing. However, minimum skin temperatures in this evaporative interval study did not fall below 33\u0026deg;C, minimizing the occurrence of vasoconstriction, which is usually expected below 32\u0026ndash;33\u0026deg;C [\u003cspan citationid=\"CR42\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e42\u003c/span\u003e, \u003cspan citationid=\"CR43\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e43\u003c/span\u003e]. The selected ventilation parameters (outlet temperature, RH and ventilation rate of the insufflated air) maintaining the vascular regulation that occurs during heat stress with vasodilation and increased blood flow to improve heat dissipation. Otherwise, the effect of sympathetic noradrenergic vasoconstrictor nerves reduces skin blood flow, leading to an extended insulation of the tissue and a reduction in heat loss [\u003cspan citationid=\"CR44\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e44\u003c/span\u003e, \u003cspan citationid=\"CR45\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e45\u003c/span\u003e].\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHence, during studies of conductive heat a 2-minute intermittent cooling regime has been applied dissipation to avoid excessively low skin temperatures [\u003cspan citationid=\"CR22\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e22\u003c/span\u003e].\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAdhering to the 33\u0026deg;C limit in this interval cooling study also confirms that 20 min is suitable as a rest period. Longer cooling periods are not necessary, since heat dissipation is sufficient, and further decreases in skin temperature could cause vasoconstriction. On the other hand, shortening would be insufficient since accumulating body heat storage will probably lead to an increase in core temperature and maximum skin temperature, reducing physical performance and extending the danger of exertional heat illness.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTo ensure sufficient sweat evaporation during rest periods, physical conditions of ventilation must be adequate. In this study insufflated air was used at intervals (rest periods, 105 min vs. 100 min, work periods) and 73% of the total sweat amount was evaporated. This can be considered as successful because continuous ventilation (600 l/min at 25\u0026deg;C, 130 min exposure time) in the previous study resulted in an evaporation rate of 82%, which was not substantial higher [\u003cspan citationid=\"CR27\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e27\u003c/span\u003e].\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe increase in the insufflated air temperature to 30\u0026deg;C during the present study contributed to the successful heat dissipation. Under normal pressure, the water vapor absorption volume at 600 l/min is approximately 842 ml/h at 25\u0026deg;C and 1120 ml/h at 30\u0026deg;C [\u003cspan citationid=\"CR28\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e28\u003c/span\u003e]. This increase enables a sufficient evaporation during the 20-minute rest periods, preventing excessive body heat accumulation.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDue to the temperature gradient between the insufflated air (30\u0026deg;C) and the mean weighted skin temperatures (\u0026gt;\u0026thinsp;33\u0026deg;C), an additional amount of of heat dissipation by convection must be considered. A certain proportion of heat emission through thermal radiation must also be taken into account. Both effects are desirable because they provide additional pathways for heat loss. Overall, evaporative (192\u0026thinsp;\u0026plusmn;\u0026thinsp;26 W, M\u0026thinsp;\u0026plusmn;\u0026thinsp;SD, n\u0026thinsp;=\u0026thinsp;12), convective and thermal radiant heat loss were sufficient to attain the required thermal relief of a total metabolic rate of 316\u0026thinsp;\u0026plusmn;\u0026thinsp;48 W (M\u0026thinsp;\u0026plusmn;\u0026thinsp;SD, n\u0026thinsp;=\u0026thinsp;12).\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eInterval cooling also positively affects subjective perceptions of exertion and heat burden. With increasing exposure time, participants in our study reported significantly lower ratings, particularly during cooled rest periods, compared to the permanently warm control condition. Indeed, subjective ratings of perceived heat burden were within the \u0026lsquo;slightly cool\u0026rsquo;/ \u0026lsquo;cool\u0026rsquo; area during the rest periods. From a physiological point of view this is not an indication that the ventilation temperature was too low, because the cooling capacity of the DAC method was moderate, as the critical skin temperature for the onset of vasoconstriction was never undercut (see above).\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAll parameters indicate that the participants were able to compensate for heat burden in the interval cooling condition because evaporative heat loss during rest periods was effective in preventing accumulation of body heat. In addition, to this result, a prolongation of predefined exposure time of 205 min would have been possible without endangering participants\u0026rsquo; health. The safety level of the microclimate cooling system DAC in the event of long-term application could be further increased by adding an individualised physiological monitoring system [\u003cspan additionalcitationids=\"CR47\" citationid=\"CR46\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e46\u003c/span\u003e\u0026ndash;\u003cspan citationid=\"CR48\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e48\u003c/span\u003e].\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEven with successful application of the interval cooling strategy, a detailed analysis of single parameters during the first work period (heart rate, core and mean weighted skin temperature) suggests further potential for optimisation because the air-diffusing undergarment (DAC-S) extends the thermal isolation as an additional clothing layer.

In the present study, the participants showed a dehydration in both test conditions, as measured by the differences between the amounts of sweating and drinking.

This study demonstrated the applicability of this microclimate cooling method with an interval strategy for tasks requiring freedom of movement, such as industrial work or military operations. Wearers of thermally insulating protective clothing can work with full mobility and without a restricting hose for cooling purposes.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn a real work situation, the effectiveness of personnel exposed to heat stress in protective clothing can be improved by an alternating work-rest schedule at a ratio of 1:1. During cooling breaks, work can be performed by personnel who have previously used the microclimate cooling facility. Thus, interval cooling reduces the time-consuming and labour-intensive dressing and undressing of protective clothing. As the tolerance time for overall heat exposure can be substantially extended, the required number of personnel can be reduced. In particular, the preventive medical aspect, namely the avoidance of heat illness, is taken into account.\u003c/p\u003e"},{"header":"Abbreviations","content":"\u003cp\u003eAll uncommon abbreviations are introduced when mentioned in the manuscript.\u003c/p\u003e"},{"header":"Declarations","content":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eEthics approval and consent to participate\u003c/em\u003e\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe volunteers gave their informed written consent to participate in this study.

As a consequence, metabolic heat can increase body core temperature rapidly, which can result in life-threatening heat illnesses. The evaporative microclimate cooling method Dry Air Comfort (DAC) has been shown to be very effective for reducing the risk of heat induced illnesses. Aim of this study was to determine whether DAC can also prevent heat stress when used in intervals.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMethods\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsing a balanced within-subject design twelve men in protective overalls were randomly assigned (max. 205 min, 25 °C, 50 % relative humidity/RH, 0.2 m/s wind speed) to a work-rest schedule (5x20 min work respectively rest each; work: treadmill, 3 km/h, 5 % incline; handling of loads) without (permanently warm condition) and with insufflating conditioned air (30 °C, \u0026lt;\u0026lt; 3 % RH, 600 l/min) into an air-diffusing undergarment during rest periods (interval cooling condition).\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eResults\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the interval cooling condition all participants tolerated the whole exposure time never exceeding a core temperature of 38.0 °C.
