Transient changes in core temperature were induced in 12 subjects--passively by immersion in a hot bath, and actively by light intermittent exercise. Measurements of core temperature were made at four sites--the auditory canal, mouth, rectum, and oesophagus--and, by using the measurements from the first three of these sites, a mathematical model was derived which permits the calculation of a predicted value for oesophageal temperature (Toe). This model--which takes the general form Toe = ATx + BdTx/dt + C where Tx = amplitude of the temperature change at a specific site, dTx/dt = rate of change of temperature at that site, and A, B, and C = site constants (different for passive and active heating)--provides an accurate prediction of Toe (to within 0.1 degrees C) from both auditory canal and mouth temperature. For prediction of Toe from rectal temperature, however, two models appear to be necessary--one to predict Toe when core temperature is rising, and another to predict Toe during the return to equilibrium when core temperature is declining.
