This fuel reformer (100) brings about a steam reforming reaction between a fuel and water on a reforming catalyst (111), and is provided with a fuel injection unit (112) for injecting fuel for supply to the reforming catalyst (111), and an injection control unit (123) for controlling the amount of the fuel injected by the fuel injection unit (112). The injection control unit (123) controls the injection amount such that the temperature of the reforming catalyst (111) does not fall below a prescribed temperature set in advance. The fuel reformer (100) is further provided with a temperature acquisition unit (121) for measuring or estimating the temperature of the reforming catalyst (111), and a target value calculation unit (122) for calculating a target value of the injection amount such that the temperature of the reforming catalyst (111) after injection of the fuel by the fuel injection unit (112) is greater than or equal to the prescribed temperature. The fuel injection unit (112) exercises control such that the injection amount coincides with the target value. |
