Heatstroke prevention Index



1. What is Heatstroke prevention index (WBGT)


Heatstroke prevention index (WBGT, Wet-Bulb Globe Temperature) index as calculated by the overall thermal environment such as temperature and humidity, solar radiation and solar radiation elements utilized in the prevention of heat waves caused by heatstroke, such as a serious illness so is also known by the name of [Heat index], [ heat wave index]. Heatstroke prevention heatstroke prevention information for each index value and exercise guidelines clarify the reasons that this index has been widely used in developed countries such as the United States, Japan.

Since 2007, the heat wave Kweather index prediction model introducing the exponent predicted heatwave across the country for over 30 metropolitan.
