Notes:
Analysis of the equations describing the instantaneous vapor and liquid flow through the holes of perforated distillation plates at low loads shows that periodic and stable pressure oscillations will always be set up between plates. These oscillations are expected to have amplitudes of the order of 0.1 in. of water and frequencies of a few cycles per second, values which are in accord with observation and which may be used as the basis for a model from which the seal point of the plates may be predicted.
