The Latest Blast Furnace Technology for Foundry Cupolas
Tuyeres for blast furnaces and most high-production cupolas are castings made using robust designs from high-conductivity copper. Since pure copper melts at 1984 °F, tuyeres must be water-cooled to survive in the furnace environment, where temperatures exceed 3,000 °F. Even with water cooling, tuyeres suffer from molten iron …
