Computes the optimal nitrox mixture for a given maximum depth.
maxmix(depth, ppO2max=1.4)
depth |
the maximum depth, in metres |
ppO2max |
maximum permitted partial pressure of oxygen in atmospheres absolute |
Computes the maximum fraction of oxygen in a nitrox mixture
subject to the constraint that the partial pressure of oxygen
does not exceed ppO2max
atmospheres.
The optimal nitrox mixture. An object of class "gas"
.
Not applicable to altitude dives. Not applicable to gas mixtures other than nitrox (oxygen-nitrogen mixtures).
