PROCESS FOR CUTTING LARGE BLOCKS OF METAL

摘要

A process for cutting very large solidified pools of metal and metallic structures by flame cutting by means of an improved burning bar is described. The cutting is conducted by a hot flame composed of very hot high pressure oxygen exiting from a burning bar packed with intermingled mild steel and aluminum rods. The hot flame or blast of oxygen melts and mobilizes the molten metal by creating at molten stream or jettisoned molten droplets and oxidized particles.
