B<font size=3D4>=FC</font><font size=3D3>hlmann had problems with his
algorithms when Helium is introduced into a mix.=A0 Unfortunately his death
came before he could solve the problems.=A0 If you attempt to use the
ZH-L16A as a sloe basis for decompression modeling you are sure to have a
high incidence of bends or outrageously long decompression times.=A0 If you
don't already know this you need to do more reading before you attempt to
use "Das Rechenmodell ZH-L16A".=A0 And I fear that not all of the
reading you need to do is in Tauchmedizin. Tauchmedizin is A. A.
B</font><font size=3D4>=FC</font><font size=3D3>hlmann's opinion
based on hi=
s
research.=A0 Other researchers have opinions that differ from his.=A0 There
are dozens of books that you should also consider reading before
attempting to devise any decompression planing of any type.<br>
<br>
BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO UTILIZE THE ZH-L16A MODEL YOU MUST UNDERSTAND THE
FUNDAMENTALS OF DECOMPRESSION WELL BEYOND THAT TAUGHT IN A PADI OW
TRAINING COURSE!!!<br>
<br>
YOU SHOULD ALSO BE AWARE THAT THE INFORMATION IN TAUCHMEDIZIN IS NOW
ABOUT TEN YEARS OLD!!!=A0 THIS BOOK WAS FIRST <u>PRINTED</u> IN
1990.<br>
<br>
With that said the ISBN is 3-540-58970-8<br>
<br>
Now just out of curiosity what is your background in diving???<br>
