Create a set of parameters that define the acceptable conditions of the Universal Thermal Climate Index (UTCI) comfort model.

These parameters can be plugged into any of the components that compute UTCI comfort.

### Inputs

* **cold\_thresh**

Temperature in Celsius below which the UTCI represents cold stress. (Default: 9C).

* **heat\_thresh**

Temperature in Celsius above which the UTCI represents heat stress. (Default: 26C).

### Outputs

* **utci\_par**

A UTCI comfort parameter object that can be plugged into any of the components that compute UTCI thermal comfort.
