mod {scuba} | R Documentation |
Computes the Maximum Operating Depth for a given gas mixture.
mod(g, ppO2max=1.4)
g |
Breathing gas. An object of class "gas" or a number
giving the fraction (between 0 and 1) of oxygen in a
nitrox mixture.
|
ppO2max |
maximum permitted partial pressure of oxygen in atmospheres absolute |
Computes the maximum depth at which the
partial pressure of oxygen does not exceed ppO2max
.
The maximum operating depth for this gas.
Not applicable to altitude dives. Does not check whether the gas would be hypoxic at the surface.
