  Warm inflationary universe models in a tachyon field theory are studied.
General conditions required for these models to be realizable are derived and
discussed. We describe scalar perturbations (in the longitudinal gauge) and
tensor perturbations for these scenarios. We develop our models for a constant
dissipation parameter $\Gamma$ in one case and one dependent on $\phi$ in the
other case. We have been successful in describing such of inflationary universe
models. We use recent astronomical observations for constraining the parameters
appearing in our model. Also, our results are compared with their analogous
found in the cool inflationary case.
