So the exhale CL acts like an accumilator (or more accurately perhaps a pulse dampener) buffering the exhale gas and enabling it to flow through the loop during the whole breathing cycle instead of only during exhale time.

So I guess then that the required size of the exhale CL depends on the resistance in the rest of the loop? A loop with very low resistance would mean the exhale CL would not inflate?

Hmm
