ABSTRACT:
A casting apparatus in which a stream of molten metal is cast into a casting mold (e.g., an ingot mold) is provided along the stream with a porous refractory body to which supplied droplets of the metal do not adhere. A protective gas, usually nitrogen, is forced through the body to form a curtain or shield around the stream of the melt.
