  • Coolable arched roof
    Patent number: 6655955
    Abstract: A coolable arched roof for a high-temperature melting furnace having a furnace interior. At least the following layers are present on that side of a layer of refractory bricks, which is remote from the furnace interior: a sealing layer, which is used to seal the furnace interior against the leakage or penetration of gas; an insulation layer having a thermally insulating action; and a cooling layer, which is designed to carry a cooling fluid. The arrangement of layers results in an increased gastightness and prevents premature aging of the refractory bricks.
    Type: Grant
