    Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus and method of making molten glass. The apparatus includes a vessel for conveying the molten glass and at least one flange configured to supply an electric current to the vessel through the flange, the flange including a first ring extending completely around the vessel in a closed loop, the first ring comprising a first portion including a first thickness and a second portion including a second thickness different from the first thickness, wherein the first portion and the second portion overlap in a plane of the flange such that at least a portion of the first portion is positioned between at least a portion of the second portion and the vessel wall, and neither the first portion nor the second portion extends completely around the vessel. Also disclosed is a method of making glass using the disclosed flange.

    Abstract: Methods for making a glass article are described that include flowing molten glass through a metallic vessel, and supplying alternating electrical currents to multiple electrical circuits, each electrical circuit including a power supply, a pair of adjacent electrical flanges connected to the power supply, and a portion of the metallic vessel extending between and in electrical communication with the pair of adjacent flanges. At least two adjacent electrical circuits of the multiple electrical circuits share an electrical flange that is a common electrical path for the two adjacent electrical circuits, the two adjacent electrical circuits being supplied with alternating electrical currents, wherein at least one of the electrical currents is cut by a phase-fired controller.
