The present invention relates to a core for hollow product manufacture including a multilayer filling material, which may be used in forming a cooling water circulation channel through which a fluid such as cooling water may pass, and a method of manufacturing a hollow product using the core, and the core includes a pipe, having a hollow formed in the pipe and an opening formed at both ends of the pipe so that the hollow is exposed to the outside through the opening, a first support member, being disposed inside the hollow and having a space formed in the first support member, a second support member, being disposed in the space, and a melting bar, passing through the second support member in a longitudinal direction of the melting bar, wherein the melting bar melts and forms a space in the second support member when the melting bar is heated.

A furnace for removing a molybdenum-alloy refractory metal core through sublimation comprising a retort furnace having an interior; a sublimation fixture insertable within the interior of the retort furnace, the sublimation fixture configured to receive at least one turbine blade having the molybdenum-alloy refractory metal core; a flow passage thermally coupled to the retort furnace configured to heat a fluid flowing through the flow passage and deliver the fluid to the molybdenum-alloy refractory metal core causing sublimation of the molybdenum-alloy refractory metal core.

Provided herein are novel tools and methods for the formation of vessels having sculpted interior and exterior forms. Novel high-temperature non-woven textile forms may be used to create a glass vessel having a three-dimensional sculpted interior of almost any shape. The non-woven textile forms may also be used as molds to artfully sculpt bottle exteriors. The invention allows for unprecedented control over the form of glass objects in an industrially scalable process.

A system and methods are provided for removing core elements of cast components. In one embodiment, a method includes controlling a first high temperature autoclave cycle for a cast component in a vessel with a first solution concentration to remove at least a first portion of core elements, wherein the first solution concentration, temperature and pressure in the vessel are controlled to expose one or more casting pins in the cast component. The method may also include controlling a second high temperature autoclave cycle for the cast component in the vessel with second solution concentration, wherein the second solution concentration, temperature and pressure in the vessel during the second high temperature autoclave cycle are controlled to loosen one or more of the casting pins from the cast component, and controlling one or more low temperature autoclave cycles to remove core and casting pins from the cast component.

A solution is provided and includes a strong base, a corrosion inhibitor, wherein the strong base is an alkali metal hydroxide, wherein the corrosion inhibitor is at least one of an organic acid having a-COOH functional group or an alkali metal salt of one of an organic acid having a-COOH functional group.

A furnace for removing a molybdenum-alloy refractory metal core through sublimation comprising a retort furnace having an interior; a sublimation fixture insertable within the interior of the retort furnace, the sublimation fixture configured to receive at least one turbine blade having the molybdenum-alloy refractory metal core; a flow passage thermally coupled to the retort furnace configured to heat a fluid flowing through the flow passage and deliver the fluid to the molybdenum-alloy refractory metal core causing sublimation of the molybdenum-alloy refractory metal core.

A fluid heating furnace is a fluid heating furnace for recycling core sand used for a core. The fluid heating furnace includes: a fluid tank in which the core sand is heated by flowing gas while the core sand is caused to flow by the flowing gas; and a gas discharge passage communicating with the fluid tank such that the flowing gas is discharged through the gas discharge passage. The gas discharge passage includes an inlet portion via which the core sand is put into the fluid tank through the gas discharge passage. In the gas discharge passage, the flowing gas discharged through the gas discharge passage heats the core sand put into the gas discharge passage from the inlet portion, and in the fluid tank, the core sand heated in the gas discharge passage is further heated.
