PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To inhibit the clogging of the spray nozzle of a vaporizer and the deposition of the raw material on the surface of the spray nozzle, thereby enhancing vaporization efficiency. SOLUTION: The vaporizer includes a vaporizing chamber for vaporizing a liquid raw material, a heater for heating the interior of the vaporizing chamber, a mixer for mixing the liquid raw material and a carrier gas, a spray nozzle for spraying the liquid raw material which has been mixed with the carrier gas in the mixer into the vaporizing chamber, a cooling member for cooling the spray nozzle and the mixer, and a cover for covering a part of the surface of the leading edge of the spray nozzle so as to be separated from the vaporizing chamber and forming a flow path for delivering a purge gas around the leading edge of the spray nozzle. A projection is provided to the center of the most leading edge of the leading edge of the spray nozzle. A spraying aperture is formed at the leading edge surface of the projection. A portion of the cover corresponding to the leading edge surface of the projection is open. The side of the projection is covered by the cover. A discharge hole is provided in a clearance between the side of the projection and the cover to discharge the purge gas delivered around the leading edge of the spray nozzle inside the vaporizing chamber.
