Submodules

labwelfare.hli module

Heat load index.

Calculate the heat load index based on the possible arguments that may be used, in which case the wind speed values in km/h and relative humidity will have to be passed. Already for the other arguments you must pass temperature of the black globe or air temperature and solar radiation.

Args:

indicator (bool): if true return heat load index and indicator. kwargs (dict): requires keys rel_hum, wind_speed, If you have the

black globe temperature value use the bg_temp key otherwise enter the air temperature air_temp, solar radiation solar_rad keys.

Returns:

tuple: if indicator true return tuple (heat load index, indicator).

labwelfare.hli(indicator=False, **kwargs)

Heat load index.

Calculate the heat load index based on the possible arguments that may be used, in which case the wind speed values in km/h and relative humidity will have to be passed. Already for the other arguments you must pass temperature of the black globe or air temperature and solar radiation.

Args:

indicator (bool): if true return heat load index and indicator. kwargs (dict): requires keys rel_hum, wind_speed, If you have the

black globe temperature value use the bg_temp key otherwise enter the air temperature air_temp, solar radiation solar_rad keys.

Returns:

tuple: if indicator true return tuple (heat load index, indicator).

labwelfare.hli_bg(bg_temp, rel_hum, wind_speed)

Heat Load Index.

Args:

bg_temp (float): black globe temperature (°C). rel_hum (float): relative humidity (%). wind_speed (float): wind speed (km/h).

Returns:

float: heat load index value

Raises:

ValueError: If bg_temp, rel_hum and wind_speed not a number.

If rel_hum or wind_speed is a negative number.

labwelfare.hli_indicator(hli, threshold=86)

Heat load index indicator.

Args:

hli (float): heat load index value. threshold (float): threshold value.

Returns:

string: indicating the thermal risk of the animal.

Raises:

ValueError: If hli and threshold not a number.

If hli or threshold is a negative number.

labwelfare.hli_no_bg(air_temp, rel_hum, solar_rad, wind_speed)

Heat load index indicator no black globe.

Args:

air_temp (float): air temperature (°C). rel_hum (float): relative humidity (%). solar_rad (float): solar radiation value. wind_speed (float): wind speed (km/h).

Returns:

float: heat load index value

Raises:

ValueError: If hli and thresgold not a number.

If hli or threshold is a negative number.
