Abstract
A heat exchange reactor includes: a first flow path through which a heat exchange fluid flows; a second flow path through which a working fluid flows; and an adsorbent shaped body that is disposed in the second flow path, the adsorbent shaped body having a heat transfer face at which heat is exchanged with the heat exchange fluid flowing in the first flow path, and plural recessed portions arrayed in two dimensions at predetermined spacings along a direction in which the working fluid flows such that the working fluid flows into the plurality of recessed portions, the adsorbent shaped body including an adsorbent and a fibrous thermally conductive material, the adsorbent releasing heat when the working fluid is adsorbed and accumulating heat when the working fluid is desorbed, and the fibrous thermally conductive material being disposed such that an axial direction thereof is oriented in a direction that intersects with the heat transfer face.
