<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a reformer capable of controlling the reforming reaction temperature of a reforming device, and the supplying flow volume of raw material fuel to the reforming device by carrying out the supply of fuel gas and oxidant gas with one blower. <P>SOLUTION: The reformer comprises: an auto-thermal type reforming device 42; a blower 40 mixing a fuel gas supplied from a fuel supplying path 20 with air supplied from an oxidant supplying path 30 to supply it to the reforming device 42; a flow volume-adjusting valve 24 varying the flow volume of the gas flowing through the fuel supplying path 20; a gas flow volume obtaining means 62 for obtaining the flow volume of the fuel gas supplied from the fuel supplying path 20 to the blower 40; a reforming device temperature sensor 45 detecting the temperature of the reforming device 42; and a reforming control means for controlling the rotation rate of the blower 40 so that the flow volume of the fuel gas becomes a target flow volume, and controlling the opening of the flow volume adjusting valve 24 so that the temperature of the reforming device 42 becomes a target temperature. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT |
