Thanks folks.  Back to the books it is!

Here is the picture with the graphs that I promised.
The horizontal axis is the liquid capacity (load) that the trays can provide.
The vertical axis is the steam velocity.
The closed loop of each tray type indicates the acceptable range of use for that tray type.
As you can see, the bubble cap tray has a very small range of stable operation, and even then at very low vapor and liquid velocities.

and here are more options for different plates

I just wanted to pop back into this thread and thank everyone that offered help.

 

We are looking at locations and forging ahead.
