A reactant introduction device, for introducing reactant into an exhaust gas stream of an internal combustion engine, includes a reactant introduction housing () with a reactant introduction space () surrounded by a housing wall (). The housing wall () includes an incoming flow wall area () positioned upstream in relation to an exhaust gas flow direction (A), an outgoing flow wall area () positioned downstream, in relation to the exhaust gas flow direction (A) and two side wall areas () between the incoming flow wall area () and the outgoing flow wall area (). At least one flow-through opening () is provided in at least one side wall area () or/and in the outgoing flow wall area (). A reactant injection device () injects reactant into the reactant introduction space () in a reactant introduction direction (E) onto a heatable reactant release element ().

Reactant introduction device for introducing reactant into the exhaust gas stream of an internal combustion engine

An exhaust system, especially for an internal combustion engine of a vehicle, includes an exhaust gas-carrying duct () and a reactant injection device () for injecting reactant (R) into exhaust gas (A) flowing in the exhaust gas-carrying duct (). Downstream of the reactant injection device (), a mixer device () supports the mixing of reactant (R) injected by the reactant injection device () with exhaust gas (A) flowing in the exhaust gas-carrying duct (). Downstream of the reactant injection device () and upstream of the mixer device (), a reactant heating device () extends in the exhaust gas-carrying duct (). The exhaust gas (A) flows in and reactant (R) injected through the reactant injection device () flow around the heating device ().
