Abstract
A method of producing glass includes receiving unrefined molten glass in a stilling chamber of a stilling tank at a fluctuating flow rate. The unrefined molten glass merges with an intermediate pool of molten glass being held within the stilling chamber. The intermediate pool of molten glass is heated in the stilling chamber by one or more non-submerged burners. Molten glass flows from the intermediate pool of molten glass to a transfer pool of molten glass held in a spout chamber of a feeding spout that is appended to the stilling tank. Additionally, a molten glass feed is delivered out of the feeding spout from the transfer pool of molten glass at a controlled flow rate.
