Hi Phil.
Once the head was inserted, would the
atmosphere around it be 1 atm or pressurized
and how would you deal with variable gas
buildup?
I think the air would go bad very quickly. Room for
scrubbers in there? Grin.

Hi, Carsten!
O.K., you're off the hook! I should have known that an experienced hand
like like you would know better than to make sweepng statements that wont
do well in a 'here are my facts - where are yours?' -
type debate/discussion. Certainly the simple metered flow method is
tried and true and works fine ( particularly with high and low sensor
alarms) but does require some attention - but then, I suppose, so does
everything else in a sub! BTW, you may get a smile out of this: I was
recently asked ( in a magazine interview) " what is the hardest part in
building your first submersible?" I wanted to give an honest answer, so I
thought about it a bit before replying " Convincing your wife,partners, and
your banker that you haven't, neccesarily, got your head inserted in your
rectum" Regards Phil
