TEMPERATURE CONTROLLED REACTION VESSEL

摘要

A novel reaction vessel apparatus (110) is provided. The reaction vessel (110) includes internally placed temperature controlling thermal probes (400) in which liquid is boiled. The energy of vaporization is supplied by the reaction vessel contents. The vapor produced by the boiling may be directed to channel coils (100) which surround the outside of the reaction vessel wall (120). The channel coils (100) contact the outside wall (120) of the reaction vessel (110) perpendicularly, and provide mechanical support for the reaction vessel. The mechanical support from the channel coils (100) allows for a decrease in the thickness of the reaction vessel wall (120) and corresponding increased heat transfer efficiency between the channel coil contents and the reaction vessel contents. The entire above described apparatus is enclosed within an evacuated shell (300) which provides additional insulation.
