Reasons for not using perforated impingement plate - API 660
Reasons for not using perforated impingement plate - API 660
(OP)
Hello
API-660, clause 7.6.4.6 states that 'perforated impingement plate baffles shall not be used'. Can anyone throw some light on the logic behind this prohibition? Any input would be appreciated. Thanks.

I called it an area but it is actually more of a volume.

Unfortunately even after being prohibited by API-660, many users are still using perforated impingement plates in disguise of distributor (to achieve thermal efficiency). Any comments on this practice (of-course I am talking about those equipments where the design should comply to API 660 contractually)?
