Theoretical Models for Thermoregulation in Man
273
vehicle to transfer the knowledge, experience and insight of research workers
in the area of thermoregulation to workers in applied fields in such a way
as to enable the latter to obtain quantitative and particular answers to
quantitative and particular problems. Thus the model becomes an extremely
powerful means of communication between research and application.
Similarly, the communication between research workers should improve
by the use of this type of model: concepts and ideas can be transmitted in
quantitative form, and, even more important, the quantitative consequences
of such concepts can be evaluated and discussed in a constructive manner.
