Abstract:
A fluid sterilization device includes a straight pipe that constitutes a flow passage extending in a longitudinal direction, and a light source that emits ultraviolet light in the longitudinal direction toward a fluid flowing in a laminar state within the flow passage. The light source includes a light emitting element for emitting ultraviolet light and emits ultraviolet light so as to provide an intensity distribution on a cross section of the flow passage perpendicular to a longitudinal direction, in which the ultraviolet intensity in an area near the center is higher than the ultraviolet intensity around the area.

Claim (Index 2):
The fluid sterilization device of  claim 1 , wherein the light source includes a plurality of light emitting elements for emitting ultraviolet light and is configured so that the number of light emitting elements disposed in a central area corresponding to an area near the center of the flow passage per unit area is larger than the number of light emitting elements disposed in a peripheral area outside the central area per unit area.
