    摘要: Methods and systems for controlling bubble size and bubble decay rate of glass foams formed during submerged combustion melting. Flowing a molten mass of foamed glass comprising molten glass and bubbles entrained therein into an apparatus downstream of a submerged combustion melter. The downstream apparatus has a floor, a roof, and a sidewall structure connecting the floor and roof. The foamed glass has glass foam of glass foam bubbles on its top surface, and the downstream apparatus defines a space for a gaseous atmosphere above and in contact with the glass foam. The downstream apparatus includes heating components to heat or maintain temperature of the foamed glass. Adjusting composition of the atmosphere above the glass foam, and/or contacting the foam with a liquid or solid composition controls bubble size of the glass foam bubbles, and/or foam decay rate.

    摘要: A gas bubbler device provides enhanced recirculation of molten glass within a glass melter apparatus. The bubbler device includes a tube member disposed within a pool of molten glass contained in the melter. The tube member includes a lower opening through which the molten glass enters and upper slots disposed close to (above or below) the upper surface of the pool of molten glass and from which the glass exits. A gas (air) line is disposed within the tube member and extends longitudinally thereof. A gas bubble distribution device, which is located adjacent to the lower end of the tube member and is connected to the lower end of the gas line, releases gas through openings therein so as to produce gas bubbles of a desired size in the molten glass and in a distributed pattern across the tube member.

    摘要: The double crucible for a glass drawing method has a heatable outer crucible (1) and an inner crucible (2) surrounded by the outer crucible (1), which is heatable separately from the outer crucible (1). Both crucibles (1,2) have an outlet nozzle (1a, 2a) for the glass to be drawn. To make glass fibers from heavy metal oxide glass (HMO-glass) with higher quality and comparatively simple crucible features, the outlet nozzle (1a) of the outer crucible (1) extends a certain distance beyond the outlet nozzle (2a) of the inner crucible (2). Surfaces of the outlet nozzles coming in contact with the glass melt are polished and are provided on a material, which has a reducing action on heavy metal glass in the melt in all cases. These surfaces also have sufficient mechanical strength for and chemical inertness to heavy metal oxide glass.

    摘要: A molten glass recirculating apparatus is provided, comprising a riser chamber having a first opening positioned below a molten glass level and a second opening positioned above a molten glass level, a trough positioned adjacent the upper opening, and a gas emitter positioned within the riser chamber below a molten glass level and methods of using the same. When a gas is emitted from the gas emitter, molten glass contained within the riser chamber rises and exits the riser chamber through the second opening and along the trough. The exiting molten glass causes additional molten glass to be drawn into the riser chamber through the first opening. The invention also comprises a glass melter including a plurality of glass recirculating means, each being individually controllable to control the circulation of molten glass within a glass melter.

    摘要: A furnace (1) for melting vitrifiable materials, including a compartment (2) for melting and refining the glass equipped, upstream, with at least one means (4) for charging vitrifiable-materials and leading, downstream, into a compartment or a series or compartments (6-7-8) intended to lead the molten glass as far as the forming zone. It is equipped with a first means for controlling the convective flows of the mass of molten glass in the form of a transverse sill (14) delimiting an "upstream" zone (3) and a "downstream" zone (5). Associated with this sill are complementary means for controlling the convective flows in the "upstream" zone including, as a minimum, submerged "upstream" heating means (15) located close to and upstream of the sill, in order to prevent molten glass that has reached said the "downstream" zone from returning into the said "upstream" zone. Another subject of the invention is the application of such a furnace and the method of operating it.

    摘要: A method for controlling secondary foam in a glass melting process is provided in which an oxidizing agent is added to a second melt region (32) of a glass furnace (14) where secondary foam (52) is formed. The oxidizing agent may be supplied directly to the second melt region (32) or may be added to the molten glass composition (46) with the batch raw materials (44) in a first melt region (30). When added directly, the oxidizing agent is preferably an oxidizing gas. When added with the batch materials (44), the oxidizing agent is a high temperature oxidizing agent which is inactive in the first melt region (30) yet active in the second melt region (32).
