Abstract
Heat stress occurs when the body temperature of the animals increases and they cannot dissipate body heat properly to maintain homeostasis, which is due to elevated ambient temperature above thermonetural zone (4 to 21along with high humidity and less air movement.
Comfort zone – suitable temperature (10-18◦C), relative humidity (55-65%), wind velocity (5-8 km/h), normal sunshine.
TEMPERATURE HUMIDITY INDEX (THI)- THI combines atmospheric temperature as well as relative humidity in a single value and used widely because it gives the combined effects the environmental conditions. It is also called discomfort index.
