The Boyle’s Law apparatus, also known as the Boyle’s machine, plays a crucial role in understanding the relationship between the pressure and volume of a gas. Let’s delve into its functions:
Gas Supply and Control:
- The apparatus receives pressurized gases from either cylinders or pipelines.
- It regulates the flow of gases before passing them through a vaporizer.
- The resulting gas mixture is then delivered to the patient via the breathing circuit.
