A Computational Model of an Outward Leak From a Closed-Circuit Breathing Device

Closed-circuit breathing devices recycle exhaled air after scrubbing carbon dioxide and adding makeup oxygen from a tank of pure oxygen. This equipment provides up to four hours of use before oxygen cylinders and CO2-absorbent canisters need to be swapped out. Firefighting situations in which these...
