Procedures for calculating the relationships between true altitude, room oxygen concentration, and equivalent altitude. There are two procedures: 1. Calculates the equivalent altitude for various degrees of oxygen enrichment, knowing the true altitude.2. Calculates the degree of oxygen enrichment necessary to provide a certain equivalent altitude, knowing the true altitude.Download the Excel file EquivAlt-FIO2.xls and follow the instructions at the top of the worksheet.
