  • Furnace cooling system and method
    Patent number: 7625517
    Abstract: A cooling system for the distribution and collection of a fluid coolant in a metallurgical vessel used in the processing of molten materials. The cooling system comprises a distribution system including an intake manifold, a plurality of headers attached to the intake manifold, and a plurality of distribution dispensers positioned along each header. A collection system, including a collection manifold, is positioned to collect the fluid coolant. The distribution dispensers are positioned to direct the fluid coolant towards the collection manifold and utilize the majority of the kinetic energy contained within the coolant to direct the coolant towards the collection manifold.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 19, 2007
    Date of Patent: December 1, 2009
    Assignee: Systems Spray-Cooled, Inc.
