If you know your two input temperatures and your desired output temperature (which must be between T1 and T2), you can re-arrange this to solve for "S", which will tell you what to set the dial to in order to get the desired temperature:
 
If you know your two input temperatures and your desired output temperature (which must be between T1 and T2), you can re-arrange this to solve for "S", which will tell you what to set the dial to in order to get the desired temperature:
  
<code>S = (100/(T2-T1)) x ((T1 x T2 / Tout) - T1)</code>
+
<code>S = (100/(T2-T1) x ((T1 x T2 / Tout) - T1)</code>

When you want to achieve a precise output ratio (r') you must take into account the temperatures of the inputs when calculating the setting of the gas mixer (r).
 
 
 
<code>r = (r'T1) / ((1-r')T2+r'T1)</code>
 
 
 
To the right is a derivation of the above equation. [[File:Gas Mixer Calc.png|thumb|Gas Mixer Calculation for Different Input Temperatures]]
 
 
 
 
 
If there is already gas in the output pipe network (m1 + m2), it is possible to calculate the goal (r') of the gas mixer which can be added to the pipe network to achieve a target gas ratio (r")
 
 
 
<code>b=(1-r")m1 - r" x m2</code>
 
 
 
<code>r' = (b x T2 - r" x V x 12.2) / ( b x (T2-T1) - V x 12.2)</code>
