Baltic Blender for Android

11 things about Baltic Blender

1. Baltic Blender uses the GERG-2004 real gas model to allow a SCUBA gas blender to easily and accurately use partial-pressure techniques to blend available gasses to the desired final mixture.

2. Baltic Blender requires that the blender allow the temperature to stabilize, rather than cool, between each step, so that an accurate measurement of the cylinder wall temperature using a commercially available infrared thermometer reflects the temperature of the gas inside.

3. First, traditional blending uses the simple ideal gas model, but the gasses we breathe, at SCUBA cylinder pressures, are far from ideal gasses.

4. It is not intended as a substitute for proper training and certification in the safety, handling, and blending of high pressure gasses, but rather as a tool to perform the complex math required to reach the desired mixture.

5. Baltic Blender uses the GERG-2004 real gas model which predicts how the real-world gasses behave.

6. Second, traditional blending generally ignores the heating of the cylinder as gas is introduced, requiring the blender to either fudge or allow the cylinder to cool.

7. Traditional blending techniques have two inherent errors which the blender must learn to compensate for, traditionally by adding a fudge-factor.

8. The partial GERG-2004 implementation used to calculate the compressibility factors of oxygen, helium, nitrogen and their mixtures in the gas phase was inspired by open source code written by David de Marneffe (daviddemarneffe[at]y a h o o .

10. In such training classes, you would learn important safety information about the handling of high-pressure gasses.
