Abstract: A Nasal-Heat probe was developed to measure intra-airway heat and vapor transfer. The changes in the intra-airway temperature, respiration rate, respiratory heat and water vapor exchange as a result of environmental conditions were easily determined using this device. The humidity profiles generated were closely related to the heat and water vapor exchange. Heat and mass transfer coefficients in the airways were determined from air stream and wall temperatures inside the nasal cavity.
