In a method for cooling tuyeres when molten iron is refined by blowing a refining gas containing oxygen, and by setting tuyeres below or above the meniscus of iron bath in a vessel for refining the molten iron, wherein concentric tuyeres are used and a refining gas containing oxygen gas is blown through the inner pipe of the concentric tuyere and a fluid for protecting the tuyeres is blown through the outer pipe of the tuyere so that the protecting fluid surrounds the refining gas in a sheath form to cool the top ends of the tuyeres, the protecting fluid being a mixture of gaseous or liquid carbon dioxide and carbon fine particles.
