[Stoves] Handy boiling point calculator

[Crispin Pemberton-Pigott]

Dear Friends

 

This is very useful.

 

Save it!

 

y = 4-08x2 - 0.0036x + 99.996

 

X = your altitude in meters.

Y = the local boiling point (at standard air pressure)

 

If you know your altitude, it will give you the 'standard' boiling
temperature.

If you know the local boiling point, you can work backwards to get the
altitude where you are standing.

 

Excel cell contents:

 

=99.996-0.0036*Altitude+4*10^-8*Altitude 

 

where 'Altitude' is the cell in which the altitude is located.

 

Regards

Crispin
