PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a steam consumption amount measurement device capable of measuring, with a simple structure, a steam consumption amount in an apparatus that uses steam, and a steam consumption amount measurement method.SOLUTION: A tire vulcanizer 2 has a container mold 5, in which a raw tire is mold clamped for being vulcanized, and an upper platen 6 and a lower platen 7 for keeping the container mold 5 at a predetermined temperature. Each of the upper platen 6 and the lower platen 7 is provided with a platen temperature sensor 8. A control valve 9 is provided on a path of a supply path 3. A steam trap 10 for drain discharging is provided on a path of an exhaust path 4. A steam line 13 is provided with: a temperature data logger 14 capable of recording, at an arbitrary set time, temperature information to be inputted; and a valve exhaust temperature sensor 15 that is provided at a drain opening position on a downstream side of the steam trap 10.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3 |
