A significant limiting factor in determining the likelihood of bubble formation in whale tissues and the risk of decompression sickness is the lack of information on their normal diving and surfacing patterns.
32.
Therefore, activation energy, ion mobility ( diffusion ) and concentration, wire resistance, surface hindrance including bubble formation ( causes electrode area blockage ), and entropy, require a greater applied potential to overcome these factors.
33.
The immediate goal of controlled decompression is to avoid development of symptoms of bubble formation in the tissues of the diver, and the long-term goal is to also avoid complications due to sub-clinical decompression injury.
34.
Supersaturation can also be defined as when the combined partial pressures of gases dissolved in a tissue exceeds the total ambient pressure on the tissue, and there is a theoretical possibility of bubble formation or growth.
35.
The immediate goal of controlled decompression is to avoid development of symptoms of bubble formation in the tissues of the diver, and the long term goal is to also avoid complications due to sub-clinical decompression injury.
36.
The immediate goal of planned decompression is to avoid development of symptoms of bubble formation in the tissues of the diver, and the long term goal is to also avoid complications due to sub-clinical decompression injury.
37.
Neutron cameras allow real time images ( generally with low resolution ), which has proved useful for studying two phase fluid flow in opaque pipes, hydrogen bubble formation in fuel cells, and lubricant movement in engines.
38.
The fundamental difference of this approach is equating absolute ambient pressure with the total of the partial gas tensions in the tissue for each gas after decompression as the limiting point beyond which bubble formation is expected.
39.
However mathematical models have been proposed which approximate the real situation to a greater or lesser extent, and these models are used to predict whether symptomatic bubble formation is likely to occur for a given pressure exposure profile.
40.
If an electric boost pump is mounted in the fuel tank to push fuel toward the engine, as is common practice in fuel-injected automobiles, the fuel pressure in the lines is maintained above ambient pressure, preventing bubble formation.
