Abstract: Embodiments of a heating system maintains the temperature of a fuel additive (e.g., AUS32) at and/or above freezing temperature to avoid crystallization. The heating system can form a fluid circuit with one or more coaxially arranged sleeves disposed about hoses that transport the additives. The fluid circuit can also include a central compartment that encloses a flow meter. A fluid heater couples with the fluid circuit to provide heating fluid, e.g., to the central compartment. The heating fluid disperses throughout the heating compartment and into the sleeves, thereby direction heating fluid in thermal proximity to the hoses and other components that handle the fuel additive.

Abstract: In a flushing brick for metallurgical vessels comprising a shaped brick having a gas distributor connected to a gas supply pipe and gas passages the gas passages lead out of a wind box and are surrounded in a gas-tight manner by a protective tube that keeps the outer part of the shaped brick free from the pressure of the flushing gas.

Abstract: A method of making an electrode printing head comprises the making of two separate sheet metal parts each formed of a series of juxtapositioned, spaced electrodes held together by at least one interconnecting web; and securing the two sheet metal parts to insulating components of the printing head in such a manner that the electrodes of the two parts are in a non-contacting, intermeshing relationship with respect to one another, whereby the electrodes of the one and the other sheet metal part alternate with one another and form an electrode row on the printing head. Subsequent to the securing step, the interconnecting webs are removed.
