Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2020081041A1] At least one row of fixed copper coolers are arranged in a furnace in a cantilevered horizontal shelf inside and fastened to an external steel ring support and the steel containment shell. These shelves redirect and take all the weight of refractory brick and floating cooling blocks that are stacked on above. Each fixed copper cooler in the shelves cantilever shoulder-to-shoulder over any refractory brick and floating cooling blocks that may be stacked beneath to relieve that lower portion of the wall from the weight of the upper wall. When relieved of such weight, the risks of sudden catastrophic failure of the lower walls is reduced. These bricks in the lower walls can also be allowed to wear and thin beyond what would be reasonable in a conventional design without any cantilevered shelving.
