High Speed Liner

Abstract

An internal lining system of an industrial chimney includes a first building block and a second building block, each having a front face facing gas flowing through the industrial chimney; a joint of binding material configured to connect the first and second building blocks such that the front faces of the first and second building blocks are aligned; and a slot formed on the front face of the first building block, smoothly crossing the joint of binding material, and formed on the front face of the second building block; wherein the slot has a depth smaller than depths of the first and second building blocks.

1 . An internal lining system for an industrial chimney, comprising:
 a first building block and a second building block, each having a front face facing gas flowing through the industrial chimney;   a joint of binding material configured to connect the first and second building blocks such that the front faces of the first and second building blocks are aligned; and   a slot formed on the front face of the first building block, crossing the joint of binding material, and formed on the front face of the second building block;   wherein the slot has a depth smaller than depths of the first and second building blocks.   
     
     
         2 . The internal lining system of  claim 1 , wherein the joint of binding material comprises a horizontal joint of binding material. 
     
     
         3 . The internal lining system of  claim 1 , wherein the slot comprises a straight line when viewed from a front-face side of building blocks. 
     
     
         4 . The internal lining system of  claim 3 , wherein the slot is formed at a 90-degree angle with respect to a horizontal line. 
     
     
         5 . The internal lining system of  claim 3 , wherein the slot is formed at a 45-degree angle with respect to a horizontal line. 
     
     
         6 . The internal lining system of  claim 1 , wherein the slot comprises two straight lines across each other when viewed from a front-face side of building blocks. 
     
     
         7 . The internal lining system of  claim 6 , wherein the slot is formed in a shape of X having the two straight lines meet at the joint of binding material. 
     
     
         8 . The internal lining system of  claim 1 , wherein the depth of the slot is not uniform. 
     
     
         9 . The internal lining system of  claim 1 , wherein the slot is formed by using a grinder, biscuit joiner, or similar tool. 
     
     
         10 . The internal lining system of  claim 1 , wherein the first and second building blocks are made of borosilicate glass. 
     
     
         11 . The internal lining system of  claim 1 , wherein the first and second building blocks are made of brick. 
     
     
         12 . The internal lining system of  claim 1  is attached to an inner surface of the industrial chimney to protect a wall of the industrial chimney. 
     
     
         13 . An industrial chimney comprising the internal lining system of  claim 1 . 
     
     
         14 . The industrial chimney of  claim 13  is a chimney for wet stack operation. 
     
     
         15 . A process of using the internal lining system of  claim 1  for a purpose of increasing a critical re-entrainment velocity.
