<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a fuel reformer that can reduce labor hour and cost required for the construction for heat insulation. <P>SOLUTION: The fuel reformer R comprises an apparatus M having a plurality of reactors B for reforming a hydrocarbon raw fuel to generate a reformed gas essentially comprising hydrogen, and an exterior container C housing the apparatus M inside. In the apparatus M inside the exterior container C, a part of the apparatus surface is covered with a planar heat insulator TS, thereby, thermally insulated, and other part of the surface is covered with a granular heat insulator K, thereby thermally insulated. An opening (A) is formed in one side face of the exterior container C; the planar heat insulator TS is inserted between the exterior container C and the apparatus M; the opening (A) is closed by the planar heat insulator TS; the planar heat insulator TS is composed of a plurality of members TS1, TS2 divided so that a part of the members can be detached through the opening (A); and a specified component 4i provided in the apparatus M is exposed through a space formed by detaching the member TS2 as a part of the planar heat insulator TS. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT |
