Thermal management system for a test-and-measurement probe
A thermal management system for a test-and-measurement probe that includes a thermally insulated shroud and a fluid inlet conduit. The shroud is configured to enclose a first portion of a probe head of the probe within an interior cavity of the shroud, while permitting a second portion of the probe head to extend out of the shroud. The shroud further includes a fluid outlet passageway configured to permit a heat-transfer fluid to pass from a probe-head end of the interior cavity, through the interior cavity of the shroud, and out of the shroud through an access portion of the shroud. The fluid inlet conduit enters the shroud through the access portion of the shroud, extends through the interior cavity of the shroud, and is configured to introduce the heat-transfer fluid to the probe-head end of the interior cavity.

FLOW REACTOR
A flow reactor can promote a reaction under appropriate temperature management, can precent reaction fluid or generated gas from being trapped in a heat transmission part, can be disassembled for easy cleaning, and to which a coating or lining can be applied. This flow reactor is provided with two flow paths, a reaction flow path and a second flow path, in a space formed between an inner cylinder and an outer cylinder that are concentric. A spiral heat transmission body is disposed between the inner cylinder and the outer cylinder, and the spiral heat transmission body has a substantially triangular cross-sectional shape in an axial cross-sectional view. The spiral heat transmission body partitions the space into the reaction flow path and the second flow path, and heat is exchanged via the spiral heat transmission body between a reaction fluid F1 flowing through the reaction flow path and a heat medium F2 flowing through the second flow path.
DOUBLE PIPE FOR HEAT EXCHANGER
A double pipe for a heat exchanger includes an inner pipe disposed in an outer pipe. In a straight-pipe portion of the double pipe, the inner pipe has a plurality of protruding parts extending in a helically offset manner along a longitudinal direction, an inner-circumferential surface of the outer pipe directly contacts the protruding parts, and outer-side channels are partitioned at a plurality of locations in a circumferential direction of the double pipe. The protruding parts are curved to protrude radially outward. In a cross section of the straight-pipe portion orthogonal to the longitudinal direction, the inner-circumferential surface of the outer pipe is circular, and an average value of D/L values of all the outer-side channels is 0.09-0.20, wherein D is defined as a maximum depth of each of the outer-side channels and L is defined as an arc length of each of the outer-side channels in the circumferential direction.
