Question Deco gas as diluent for deco

[kissonerga.ccr]

human body can be approximated by 100kg of water

This may be true for your side of the Atlantic. Here, in the Med region, we like to be approximated by about 72kg of water

That is a horribly un-metric number for BOE calculation. All results can be be scaled for your actual weight.

Using just water is probably a worse error than using 100kg.

In another thread on another site there was a rather lengthy debate about this but the consensus was that at saturation the average human has about 1litre of absorbed inert gas.

At 1 bar? If so, at 5 bar would be ~5 L, not that far from by BOE estimate of ~8L.
