I think it's called a WORT chiller.

Alton Brown chilled stock on a show this week by putting the kettle
in a picnic cooler with a few inches of ice in the bottom of it,
and suspending two or three clean plastic bottles filled with frozen
water in the kettle. He said it would take ~an hour to cool enough to
refrigerate.
