Abstract
A discharge nozzle assembly for discharging molten metal from a metallurgical vessel includes a refractory nozzle brick having therethrough a discharge passage. An annular member formed of a refractory gas-permeable material is embedded in the nozzle brick and has an inner surface defining a discharge passage aligned with the discharge passage of the nozzle brick. A processing gas is supplied to the annular, gas-permeable member which supplies such gas to the discharge passage. The annular member is encased in metal, except for the inner surface thereof, to prevent leakage of the gas.
