Abstract
A refractory unit for lining a high temperature vessel includes a refractory body formed from a refractory material. The refractory body has an upper main surface, a lower main surface, an inner surface configurable to face a high temperature chamber, an outer surface configurable to face away from the high temperature chamber, a first side surface and a second side surface. An elastic member is attached to the outer surface.

A refractory unit for lining a high temperature vessel, comprising:
- a refractory body formed from a refractory material and having an upper main surface, a lower main surface, an inner surface configurable to face a high temperature chamber, an outer surface configurable to face away from the high temperature chamber, a first side surface and a second side surface;
- and
- an elastic member attached to the outer surface.
A method for constructing a refractory lining for a high temperature vessel, comprising arranging a plurality of refractory units relative to each other, wherein at least some of the plurality of refractory units are elastically coupled to at least one of an adjacent refractory unit or a shell of the high temperature vessel.
