Abstract
A method for measuring the temperature of fluid masses being treated in a tubular reactor apparatus which comprises carrying out the treatment in reactor apparatus comprises at least two same-type tubular reactors which are filled with solid particles, at least one tubular reactor containing a temperature measuring unit, the tubular reactors being designed such that both the ratio of the mass of the solid particles to the free cross-sectional area of the respective tubular reactor and the pressure drop measured by an inert gas being conducted transversely to the free cross-sectional area are each substantially identical across the respective tubular reactor. The apparatus is suitable for treating fluid masses while generating or consuming thermal energy, the temperature being measured.
