PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a temperature control system, a temperature control method and a catalyst heater capable of preventing deterioration of capacity as an automobile even in a cold district and the like, and capable of efficiently heating each part of the automobile so as to travel comfortably and the like, in an electric automobile and the like.SOLUTION: A temperature control system controls the temperature of each part of an electric automobile and the like. The temperature control system is a heat pump method by using a refrigerant, and it includes a refrigerant and a heat pump circulation passage. In the heat pump circulation passage, a compressor, a condenser, an expansion valve and an evaporator are arranged sequentially. Between the evaporator and the compressor, a catalyst heater is also arranged. The catalyst heater generates heat by supplying a fuel and an oxidized gas to a catalyst, and it can perform auxiliary heating of the refrigerant which is vaporized in the evaporator and delivered to the compressor, by the generated heat.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2 |
