ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for cooling a BOF trunnion ring by vaporization. A water mist is injected into the interior space of the trunnion ring where it is vaporized. The heat transfer of vaporization cools the trunnion ring, and the hot vapor is vented from the trunnion ring to the atmosphere.
