PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a fuel reforming apparatus capable of converting gasoline mainly composed of hydrocarbons to alcohol on a vehicle and having a condenser which has simple structure, is suitable for being downsized and is easily manufactured and maintained.SOLUTION: A condenser 16 is formed into double vessel composed of a first casing 161 that extends from the bottom side to the upper side and configures an outer shell of a body and a second casing 162 inside the first casing 161. A gap between the first casing 161 and the second casing 162 configures a flow passage 163 of a fluid mixture. The outer circumferential surface of the first casing 161 serves as a heat dissipation part 1610. The condenser 16 has a gas-liquid separation part 166 which is provided at the upper side of the double vessel, subjects a gas-liquid mixture coming from the flow passage of 163 of the gas-liquid mixture to gas-liquid separation, collects a liquid-phase substance generated by the gas-liquid separation, and flows down the collected liquid-phase substance by gravity toward a reformed-fuel tank 1621 provided at the bottom side of the second casing 162.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2 |
