Abstract

Disclosed is a structure for guiding the installation of a thermowell for temperature sensor, which is used to measure the axial temperature inside a fixed-bed catalyst reaction tube when it is filled with a catalyst, at a predetermined location in the reaction tube. In addition, a method for installing a thermowell for temperature sensor is provided. The method includes the steps of installing a structure for guiding the installation of a thermowell for temperature sensor in a reaction tube and fixing the thermowell for temperature sensor while filling the reaction tube with a catalyst.
