Best Answer

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.
