配を増加させて、反応熱の伝熱の向上を図っている。Hydrogen gas is sent into the reaction tube 1 from the supply/discharge pipe 5, passes through the hydrogen gas passage 4, and is stored in the hydrogen storage alloy 6 in each storage chamber 3, and the hydrogen gas released from the hydrogen storage alloy 6 is the same as above. The hydrogen gas is discharged into the hydrogen gas supply/discharge pipe 5 by passing through the passage in the opposite direction. As shown in FIG. 2A, a filter 7 may be inserted into the hydrogen gas supply/discharge pipe 5 for safety, but it does not need to be inserted as shown in FIG. 1A. Hydrogen storage alloy 6 and reaction tube 1
The heat transfer between the hydrogen absorbing alloy 6 and the hydrogen absorbing alloy 6 is carried out in part by heat conduction only, but is efficiently carried out by the heat transfer partition wall 2. When hydrogen gas is stored and released into the hydrogen storage alloy 6, the reaction rate is determined by temperature. Therefore, in order to ensure that the reaction occurs efficiently and quickly, the outside of each reaction column 1 is used to store and release hydrogen gas at an appropriate rate. Cool or heat with hot water, etc. In the reactor shown in Fig. 2, heat transfer oil 'N18 is placed in the center to increase the heat transfer area and increase the temperature gradient within the reactor to improve the heat transfer of reaction heat. There is.

偏在が起らず合金が外部に流出することも起らない。In any of the above reactors, since the hydrogen storage alloy 6 formed into a certain shape is used, the hydrogen storage alloy is
Since it is not mixed into hydrogen gas, uneven distribution of the hydrogen storage alloy does not occur, and the alloy does not leak to the outside.
伝熱隔壁2に微細な水素ガスの流通孔を設けて、隣合う
収納室30間を水素ガスが流通し得るようにしてもよい

あってもよい。Fine hydrogen gas flow holes may be provided in the heat transfer partition 2 to allow hydrogen gas to flow between adjacent storage chambers 30, or the heat transfer partition wall 2 may not allow hydrogen gas to flow. It may be.

図のような伝熱隔壁2を用いるようにしてもよい。The heat transfer partition wall 2 shown in FIG. 2 is thermally connected to the inner wall of the reaction tube 1 at the outer peripheral end surface, and the heat transfer partition wall 2 shown in FIG. However, even if the heat transfer partition wall 2 as shown in Fig. 1 is used in the reactor shown in Fig. 2, the
A heat transfer partition wall 2 as shown in the figure may be used.

てもよい。The thickness of the hydrogen storage alloy 6 formed into a certain shape determines the spacing between the heat transfer partition walls 2, but when the hydrogen storage alloy 6 has the property of expanding when storing hydrogen, the outer diameter and inner diameter should take expansion into account. It is preferable to use dimensions that do not apply excessive force to the reaction tube, and also to ensure that the axial compressive force acting on the reaction tube 1 and the heat transfer partition wall 2 due to the axial expansion of the hydrogen storage alloy 6 exceeds a certain value. In order to prevent this, instead of storing the hydrogen storage alloy 6 in some of the alloy storage chambers 3, a spring that deforms in the axial direction may be inserted.

ないという優れた効果を奏する。The reaction equipment of this 9.1JI has excellent heat transfer efficiency between the reaction tube and the hydrogen storage alloy without uneven distribution of the hydrogen storage alloy or mixing of the hydrogen storage alloy into the released hydrogen gas, and has a long reaction tube length. This has an excellent effect in that the efficiency of the occlusion and desorption reactions remains almost unchanged even if the length of the reaction becomes longer.
