For technical diving, this reserve can be up to 66% of the total available gas.
|
||||||
|
In addition to calculating the total gas consumption for every cylinder the planner provides one way
|
||||||
|
of calculating the recommended volume of bottom gas which is needed for safe asscent to the
|
||||||
|
first deco gas change depth or the surface. This procedure is called the "minimum gas" or "rock bottom"
|
||||||
|
consideration and it is used by various (but not all)
|
||||||
|
technical diving organisations. The calculation assumes that in worst case an out of gas (OoG)
|
||||||
|
situation could occur at the end of the planned bottom time at maximum depth. This OoG event forces
|
||||||
|
the buddy team the share the gas of one diver and to stay at maximum depth for an additional
|
||||||
|
time of n minutes (preferences option "problem solving time").
|
||||||
|
At the same moment the combined SAC of both divers is increased by a estimated factor (preferences option
|
||||||
|
"SAC factor") compared to the SAC factor of a single diver under normal conditions.
|
||||||
|
The result of the minimum gas calculation for the bottom gas is printed to the planner output as an
|
||||||
|
additional information. No automatic checks are performed based on this result.
|
||||||
|
Please take care that the feature only gives valid results for simple, rectengular shaped single
|
||||||
|
level dive profiles. For multi level dives one would need to check every leg of the profile independantly.
