<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a fluid heating tube for heating fluid more homogeneously than conventional one over the entire length, and to provide its heating method. <P>SOLUTION: The tube for increasing the temperature of the fluid has at least an outermost face formed with a conductive exothermic layer 3. The conductive exothermic layer 3 is heated by applying voltage to the direction of the diameter of the conductive exothermic layer 3 to heat the fluid. In the state of holding the tube having the conductive exothermic layer 3 formed in the longitudinal direction between a pair of electrodes, voltage is applied to the direction of the diameter of the tube, whereby the conductive exothermic layer 3 is heated to increase the temperature of the fluid in the tube. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT</p> |
