Claims5
A metal ingot, comprising:
- a rectangular elongate center body extending between longitudinal ends and characterized by tapered peripheral edges extending between said longitudinal ends and a first and second handle structure extending from said longitudinal ends of said center body each said handle being formed to a thickness less than half of the thickness of said center body and including recesses therein, and said center body having formed therein a first and second opening respectively adjacent said first and second handles for reducing the section of said center body thereat to control the heat transfer therethrough.
An ingot form useful in controlling the heat transfer from one end thereof to the other, comprising:
- an elongate, substantially rectangular center body of a first thickness;
- a first and second handle structure extending from the longitudinal ends of said center body each of a second thickness and each including a recess therein, said second thickness being less than one half of said first thickness and
