An installation method of a refractory fiber integral module, includes: carrying out construction pretreatment, then welding an anchoring part to a furnace wall, and then laying a tiled layer along the furnace wall; then fixing the refractory fiber integral module neatly on a hot surface of the tiled layer by the anchoring part to form a refractory fiber prefabricated layer, and filling reserved gaps between the refractory fiber integral modules with compensation strips; finally checking the refractory fiber prefabricated layer, and repairing gaps whose width is greater than a preset width.

The present invention provides a method for coating the bottom of a steel pan comprising the steps of positioning a mold on the bottom of the steel pan; securing the mold by means of a clamping mechanism; applying refractory material to the bottom of the pan and below the mold; applying a load to the mold; and removing the mold from the refractory material. The present invention is advantageous because it enables an increase in the metallic yield of pans and the reduction of non-metallic inclusions, which are normally dragged by the vortex formed.
