Octane number-increasing catalyst, fuel reformer of internal combustion engine, and the internal combustion engine
摘要
<p>A fuel reformer of an internal combustion engine (30) includes: an octane number-increasing catalytic device (10) including an octane number-increasing catalyst (12); and an oxygen supply device (20) that supplies oxygen to the octane number-increasing catalytic device (10). The octane number-increasing catalyst (12) includes rhodium and increases an octane number of liquid-phase fuel under presence of oxygen. The fuel reformer can enhance combustion characteristics of the internal combustion engine (30).</p>
