Summary

THE PAPER PRESENTS A SINGLE PSYCHROMETRIC CHART THAT CAN BE USED AT ANY PRESSURE, PROVIDED THAT THE HUMID MIXTURE BEHAVES AS AN IDEAL GAS. IN THE CASE OF AIR, THE NEED FOR SEVERAL CHARTS, EACH FOR A DIFFERENT ALTITUDE, IS ELIMINATED. FURTHERMORE, THE ONE CHART IS VALID FOR ANY DRY-GAS MIXTURE, SUCH AS DIVING GAS MIXTURES (OF HELIUM AND OXYGEN, FOR EXAMPLE. AN INTERACTIVE COMPUTER CODE IS PRESENTED, WHICH CAN BE USED WITH EASE.
