Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
Sweat evaporation plays a crucial role in cooling the human body, a process enabled by perspiration. When relative humidity is at high levels, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to keep more heat than it would in less humid conditions.
