What happens to fart on a submarine?

Carbon dioxide, particulate matter and other unbreathable gases must be removed from the air. As the concentration of these gases rise, it becomes a toxin.

Does it smell bad on submarines?

The chemical that cleans CO2 from submarine air leaves it smelling awful. This chemical, called amine, is known by every submariner (I was one for 3 years), as well as every submariner’s wife, husband, or anyone else who encounters that sailor’s laundry.

What does it smell like inside a submarine?

Where does the smell go when you fart?

Does Sweden have nuclear subs?

“No sailor ever spent any time in this bizarre nuclear mini-sub, as Sweden canceled the project in 1962. Sweden shifted to its diesel-powered, AIP-augmented conventional submarines—although the A-11A’s design had an influence on these later hunter-killers. However, the neutral country’s nuclear experiments didn’t end.

How many men are in a sub?

Fast Attack submarines have a crew of around 134, broken into about 120 enlisted and 14 officers, while SSBNs have an additional 16 enlisted and usually an additional officer.

Do your ears pop on a submarine?

Helen – No their ears probably don’t pop because in fact, unlike a scuba diver who takes down a tank of air and breathes it at pressure that is equal to the water around them-which becomes very high very quickly as you go down-submarines are pressurised so that inside them they maintain the same pressure as air at the …
