PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a fuel reformer capable of preventing leakage of liquid water with respect to a reform part, having high production freedom degree of an evaporation part and having high productivity.SOLUTION: A fuel reformer 10 comprises: a cylindrical shaped heater 11 on a center, an evaporation part 12 disposed on surrounding of the heater 11; a reform part 13 disposed on a downstream side and a lower side of the evaporation part 12; and a purification part 14 disposed on a downstream side of the reform part 13. The evaporation part 12 comprises introduction pipes 12A, 12B into which liquid water W and raw material gas G3 are introduced, in the vicinity of an upper end. A lower part of the evaporation part 12 is closed by a bottom face 12C. On the downstream parts of the introduction pipes 12A, 12B, evaporation channels 12D are formed. The liquid water W introduced into the evaporation part 12 falls the evaporation channels 12D and is heated by the heater 11, and the liquid water W becomes moisture vapor and is mixed with the raw material gas G3, and then becomes gaseous mixture. The gaseous mixture is discharged to the reform part 13 via a communication hole 12E communicated to the reform part 13.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 |
