A cooling plate for an iron and steelmaking furnace includes a copper cooling plate body having at least one cooling duct for a cooling medium extending essentially parallel with the back of the cooling plate body. The cooling plate body further includes a preformed, externally accessible recess into which the cooling duct opens. A connection piece is utilized as a cooling medium connection on the back of the cooling plate body, while a formed piece fitted within the externally accessible recess forms a deflection surface for the cooling medium flowing from the connection piece into the cooling duct, or from the cooling duct into the connection piece.

Cooling panel for a furnace for producing iron or steel

A method for production of a cooling plate ( ) with integrated coolant ducts ( ) for iron and steel making furnaces, in particular blast furnaces, is described. A preform of the cooling plate ( ) is continuously cast by a continuous casting mould ( ), wherein rod-shaped inserts ( ) in the casting duct ( ) of the continuous casting mould ( ) produce in this preform ducts ( ) running in the continuous casting direction, which form coolant ducts in the finished cooling plate.
