Hi all,

I'm new to the mechanical design of air cooler header box and its nozzle. Is there a code/standard that applies to this type of equipment?

I am guessing here but I think Sect VIII, Div. 1, Appendix 13 for non-circular cross section would be applicable for the header box design. What about the calculation method for the nozzle to the header box, which industrial method is used?

Thanks.
 
Start with reading API 661.
