Heat Co-efficients - How to raise or lower them
My goal is to have an even heat co-efficient of steam on my entire body in my steam session. If it has too much condensate the steam when blowing on me feels stingy and uncomfortable. If I am only concerned with only heating my upper body then I don't pay attention to heat co-efficients.
Many times people want the steam more intense and don't want to turn up the temperature because it feels uncomfortable,
So, when the temperature is in the 110 to 114 degree window and I use a heat co-efficient fan to blow the steam on my body it feels much more intense without raising the temperature on the controller. When using the fan I like to keep it around 110 if I want to stay in 20 to 25 minutes. If I use the fan at 114 or 115 degrees I do not stay in long.
If trying to raise the heat co-efficient of the steam around the body, the hotter the thermocline, the lower most people will want to have the fan speed. I use the Attwood fan. It is the best one that I have found and you don't have to plug it in. I like to feel a draft of steam around my body as long as the temperature is not too hot. It is the opposite of a wind chill factor. The harder the fan blows the steam on you the hotter it feels. I bring my fan to gyms and spas and everyone that tries it wants to get one. The people that have their phones with them write down the name of it. They ask me questions and don't realize I have a review site on steam.
Notice: if you are going to use a fan to raise the heat co-efficient, make sure the steam is a low condensate steam and is a slow burn or at least a high psi model. Low psi models do not make steam that feels good when blown on me.
Notice: A heat co-efficient fan is different than a latent heat fan. The latent heat fan blows steam to a different thermocline without blowing directly on you. The heat co-efficient fan blows directly on you.
