When air temperature exceeds body temperature, the only avenue for heat loss is via sweating. This is because bi-directional heating occurs via convection and radiation.

However, the cooling power of sweating has long been known (Bladgen 1775a, 1775b). Therefore the degree in which core temperature would change depends on firstly how much air temperature exceeds body temperature and secondly the water vapour pressure of the environment.

Why the temperature of exhaled air is higher than that of inhaled air?

The temperature of exhaled air is higher than inhaled air because the air is warmed as it passes through our body and our lungs. Our body has a higher temperature than the ambient air, so as we breathe in, the air gets warmed up to match our body temperature.

What happens to the concentration of urine if the air temperature increases?

As air temperature rises humans sweat more. This means we lose water - which would otherwise have been released as urine. There is thus a higher proportion of urea compared with water in the urine; so, rises in temperature increase the concentration of urine.
