Abstract

A reactor has a heat exchanging body having a heat medium flow channel that a heat medium fluid flows and a reaction flow channel that a reaction fluid flow, and at least one detection part for detecting temperature of a fluid in one or both of the heat medium flow channel and the reaction flow channel. At least one installation hole extends in a skew position to the flow channel and includes an opening portion communicating with the flow channel. The detection part is installed at the opening portion and contacts the flowing fluid. At least one fluid guide hole is formed along the flow channel from the opening portion of the installation hole.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A reactor comprising:
a heat exchanging body including therein a heat medium flow channel in which a heat medium fluid is caused to flow, and a reaction flow channel in which a reaction fluid is caused to flow; and
at least one detection part that detects temperature of a fluid flowing in at least one flow channel of the heat medium flow channel and the reaction flow channel,
wherein the heat exchanging body has:
at least one installation hole formed to extend in a skew position with respect to the at least one flow channel so as to include an opening portion communicating with the at least one flow channel, in which the at least one detection part is installed at the opening portion so as to be contactable with the fluid flowing in the at least one flow channel; and
at least one fluid guide hole formed along the at least one flow channel from the opening portion of the at least one installation hole.

2. The reactor according to claim 1 , wherein a transmission line is connected to the at least one detection part, the at least one installation hole is formed to extend linearly from the opening portion to an outside, and the transmission line is installed in the at least one installation hole.

3. The reactor according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one installation hole extends in a direction perpendicular to the at least one flow channel.

4. The reactor according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one fluid guide hole has a narrowing tip portion on an opposite side from the opening portion.

5. The reactor according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one fluid guide hole is formed so as to allow the fluid flowing in the at least one flow channel to gradually spread toward the opening portion.

6. The reactor according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one fluid guide hole is connected to the opening portion of the at least one installation hole with no step present therebetween and extends in two directions from the opening portion.

7. The reactor according to claim 1 , wherein
the at least one flow channel is formed to include a plurality of branch flow channels separating from each other, and the at least one detection part includes a plurality of detection parts,
wherein the at least one installation hole includes a plurality of installation holes, and the plurality of installation holes are each formed to extend in a skew position with respect to one of the plurality of branch flow channels so as to include an opening portion communicating with the one of the plurality of branch flow channels, and
wherein the at least one fluid guide hole includes a plurality of fluid guide holes each formed along one of the plurality of branch flow channels from the opening portion of the corresponding one of the plurality of installation holes.

8. The reactor according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one detection part includes:
a first detection part that detects temperature of the heat medium fluid flowing in the heat medium flow channel; and
a second detection part that detects temperature of the reaction fluid flowing in the reaction flow channel,
the at least one installation hole includes:
a first installation hole formed to extend in a skew position with respect to the heat medium flow channel so as to include an opening portion communicating with the heat medium flow channel, in which the first detection part is installed at the opening portion so as to be contactable with the heat medium fluid flowing in the heat medium flow channel; and
a second installation hole formed to extend in a skew position with respect to the reaction flow channel so as to include an opening portion communicating with the reaction flow channel, in which the second detection part is installed at the opening portion so as to be contactable with the reaction fluid flowing in the reaction flow channel, and
the at least one fluid guide hole includes:
a first fluid guide hole formed along the heat medium flow channel from the opening portion of the first installation hole; and
a second fluid guide hole formed along the reaction flow channel from the opening portion of the second installation hole.

9. The reactor according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one detection part includes a plurality of detection parts that detect the temperature of the fluid flowing in one flow channel among the heat medium flow channel and the reaction flow channel,
wherein the at least one installation hole includes a plurality of installation holes formed to extend in skew positions with respect to the one flow channel so as to include opening portions communicating with the one flow channel at mutually different positions, in which the plurality of detection parts are installed respectively at the opening portions of the plurality of installation holes so as to be contactable with the fluid flowing in the one flow channel at mutually different positions, and
wherein the at least one fluid guide hole includes a plurality of fluid guide holes respectively formed from each of the opening portions of the plurality of installation holes along the one flow channel.
