Abstract

A reactor for generating moisture wherein ignition of hydrogen gas, backfire to the gas supply source side, and the peeling off of the platinum coat catalyst layer inside are all prevented more completely to further increase the safety of the reactor for generating moisture, and wherein the dead space in the interior space is reduced to further reduce the size of the reactor shell. The reactor has a reactor shell A with an interior space; a reflector on an inlet side facing a gas feed port in the interior space of the reactor; a reflector on an outlet side facing a moisture gas take-out port in the interior space; and a platinum coat catalyst layer 8 formed on an inside wall of a reactor structural component on the outlet side. Hydrogen and oxygen fed into the interior space of the reactor react without combustion.
