Clarification request(s) and response
David Moore: 9:39am Nov 2, 2006: "Restriction plate" makes me think this was not written by a specialist, but was maybe a third-language translation. The term normally used would, I think, be "baffle plate".
Christiana Hadjipavli: 12:42pm Nov 2, 2006: yeah... you are probably right about the person who wrote this. So, you think it would be wiser to make glossary entry using "baffle plate"? Thank you David.
David Moore: 12:45pm Nov 2, 2006: I would suggest you add it.
Best wishes...
Günther Toussaint: 1:19pm Nov 2, 2006: Fully agree with David! You could even omit the "plate" and simply say "baffle"
