Reply to comment by perrochon in If you wrapped a human in a theoretical blanket that was able to insulate 100% of heat produced by the person, would that person’s body temperature eventually reach equilibrium, or would their metabolism cause them to keep getting hotter and hotter until they perish? by NonEuclideanGal

also of note if anyone's interested, is that 100W over 24 hours is 2.4 kWh or 8,640 kJ or 2,065 kcal

obviously the actual metabolic rate varies greatly, from around 60-70W or so during deep sleep to >1,000W during intense exercise. As well as between different people
