15 Heat Loss 6/21/2017 MATERI AJAR FISIOLOGI VETERINER II (TERMOREGULASI) 15

16 Body heat will be released through: Radiation Infrared heat wave (electromagnetic 5-20 μm) Convection Conduction Evaporation (sweat, respiration) Urination, defecation 6/21/2017 MATERI AJAR FISIOLOGI VETERINER II (TERMOREGULASI) 16

17 Radiation Conduction Evaporation} Heat loses heat from the skin to the environment Radiation: - 60 % of the total heat loss - In the form of infrared heat wave Conduction: - To other object 3% of heat loss - 15 % to the air Convection: transfer of heat from the body though air convection preceded by conduction 6/21/2017 MATERI AJAR FISIOLOGI VETERINER II (TERMOREGULASI) 17

18 Sun = most important source of radiant heat: Photons from the sun excite molecules in the atmosphere, warming them by radiant heat. 6/21/2017 MATERI AJAR FISIOLOGI VETERINER II (TERMOREGULASI) 18

19 Heat Loss: Heat from the internal organs is passed to the skin via the circulation Factors : - The rate of heat conduction to the skin - The rate of heat transfer from the skin to its surroundings Insulator : Skin, subcutaneous tissues, particularly fat from subcutaneous tissue it is not effective for heat distribution low thermal conductivity 6/21/2017 MATERI AJAR FISIOLOGI VETERINER II (TERMOREGULASI) 19

20 Effect of clothes - The rate of heat loss through conduction & convection is depressed - Clothes made of ordinary materials decreases the rate of heat loss ½ x from the naked body - Polar clothes 1/6 X - Heat from skin to clothes radiation - The effectiveness of maintaining of body temperature is almost lost when the clothes are wet 6/21/2017 MATERI AJAR FISIOLOGI VETERINER II (TERMOREGULASI) 20

21 Internal Insulator External Insulator 6/21/2017 MATERI AJAR FISIOLOGI VETERINER II (TERMOREGULASI) 21

22 Circulatory convection the ability of circulation system to take and drain the heat to maintain the temperature of brain and visceral organ 6/21/2017 MATERI AJAR FISIOLOGI VETERINER II (TERMOREGULASI) 22

23 Response to Heat Stress: 1. Dilatation of skin arteriol capillary blood flow 2. Opening of arteriovena anastomose in the leg, ear, and mouth blood flow and heat to the peripheral skin temperature increases (heat loss ) 6/21/2017 MATERI AJAR FISIOLOGI VETERINER II (TERMOREGULASI) 23

24 Response to Cold Stress: 1. Constriction of skin arteriol capillary blood flow 2. Anastomose arteriovenous closure in the legs, ears, and mouth Heat loss from the skin 6/21/2017 MATERI AJAR FISIOLOGI VETERINER II (TERMOREGULASI) 24

25 Control of Conductance by Regional Heterothermy Cold-climate homeotherms can allow their appendages to cool to reduce heat loss. Countercurrent heat exchange occurs between warm out-flowing blood in a central artery and cold inflowing blood in surrounding veins. 6/21/2017 MATERI AJAR FISIOLOGI VETERINER II (TERMOREGULASI) 25

26 6/21/2017 MATERI AJAR FISIOLOGI VETERINER II (TERMOREGULASI) 26

27 Cooling effect by the wind The air layer adjacent to the skin is immediately replaced by new air convection Conduction & convention by water Water has special heat several thousand times > air Rate of heat loss to the water > air at the same temperature air = udara At very cold temperatures the rate of heat loss to water = to the air 6/21/2017 MATERI AJAR FISIOLOGI VETERINER II (TERMOREGULASI) 27

28

29 Evaporation Evaporation of 1 liter of water to water vapor needs 580 kkal If skin temperature > environment temperature Heat will loss through radiation and conduction If environment temperaure > skin temperature The body will obtain heat radiation and conduction Body heat releases through evaporation The ability of evaporation decreases when the humidity 6/21/2017 MATERI AJAR FISIOLOGI VETERINER II (TERMOREGULASI) 29

30 Sweat regulation by the autonomic nervous system Stimulation of the preoptic area in the anterior of hypothalamus impuls to the spinal cord through autonomic pathway To the skin through sympathetic pathway sweat Sweat gland Innervation by the cholinergic nerve (secretes acetylcholine) 6/21/2017 MATERI AJAR FISIOLOGI VETERINER II (TERMOREGULASI) 30

32 Temperature sensor Brain Increaset/decrease Heat loss/heat production Heat-sensitive neuron in the preoptic area of anterior hypothalamus monitore body and brain temperatures Temperature-sensitive neuron in the skin active in the cold (more active) and in the hot temperature alteration of environment temperature can be quickly detected before change the body temperature shivering, sweating Core temperature receptor spinal cord, internal organ in the abdomen and surrounding large veins Information from the anterior hypothalamus and the peripheral receptors are then integrated in the posterior hypothalamus Heat production/ heat conservation 6/21/2017 MATERI AJAR FISIOLOGI VETERINER II (TERMOREGULASI) 32

33 Mechanism of Thermoregulation Thermoreceptor in the skin and in the body give information to the hypothalamus (set point) conservation/ heat production 6/21/2017 MATERI AJAR FISIOLOGI VETERINER II (TERMOREGULASI) 33

34

35 In the range of thermoneutral zone, body temperature is regulated through the vasomotor mechanism ( and blood flow) then follwed by convection and radiation 6/21/2017 MATERI AJAR FISIOLOGI VETERINER II (TERMOREGULASI) 35

36 Posterior Hypothalamus Receives sensoric signal for temperature from the core and peripheral receptors Shivering - Primary motoric center is located in the posterior hypothalamus inhibited by the high temperature signal from the preoptic area and stimulated by the cold signal from the skn and spinal cord Fever - Body temperature > normal - Causa: brain abnormality, toxic materials 6/21/2017 MATERI AJAR FISIOLOGI VETERINER II (TERMOREGULASI) 36

37 Mechanism of Temperature Regulation Cold environment activates : - Shivering - Hungry - Conscious activities heat production - Norepinephrine/epinephrine - Thyroxine & cathecolamine secretion}increase o Cutaneous vasoconstriction } o Curled up Decrease heat loss o Horripilation Control : Posterior Hypothalamus 6/21/2017 MATERI AJAR FISIOLOGI VETERINER II (TERMOREGULASI) 37

38 Physiological Response to the Cold Temperature 1. Decreases heat loss (vasoconstriction, curled up, piloerection, fur growth, fat deposition) 2. Increases heat production: - Increases food intake - Muscle contraction (shivering) - Non-shivering thermogenesis, calorigenic effect of epinephrine/norepinephrine - Brown fat uncouple reaction heat production 6/21/2017 MATERI AJAR FISIOLOGI VETERINER II (TERMOREGULASI) 38

39 Shivering Primary motoric center is located in the posterior hypothalamus inhibited by the signal from hot center in the preoptic area and stimulated by the cold signal from the skin and spinal cord Chemical energy used for the shivering process is transferred to the body in the form of heat (can increase heat production 4x higher) 6/21/2017 MATERI AJAR FISIOLOGI VETERINER II (TERMOREGULASI) 39
