CONTROL DEVICE FOR A FUEL REFORMING APPARATUS

摘要

A fuel reforming apparatus has a heating device, a reformer, and a CO oxidizing device. The heating device has a burning device for oxidizing fuel for burning with air and a vaporizing device for vaporizing the raw fuel. The control device for the fuel reforming apparatus has a raw fuel quantity determinator and a target temperature setting means for setting the target temperature of the raw fuel. The raw fuel quantity determinator determines a quantity of raw fuel supplied to the heating device. On the basis of the quantity of raw fuel supplied to the heating device by the determination of the raw fuel quantity determinator, the target temperature setting means sets a target temperature of the raw fuel. The heating device then heats the raw fuel to the predetermined target temperature by the control of the abovementioned control device.
