ABSTRACT:
A method of warming up a fuel evaporator is disclosed. The fuel evaporator2comprises: an evaporation chamber2bequipped with a first injection device2afor injecting raw fuel liquid onto a heat source2p,and vaporizing the raw fuel liquid on the heat source; a catalyst combustor20having a combustion catalyst22a,and introducing catalytically burned combustion gas into the heat source; a second injection device30for supplying fuel to the catalyst combustor; a combustion gas transferring device10equipped with a fuel injection portion10aand a combustion catalyst10c,and the fuel injection portion injecting fuel onto the combustion catalyst to generate a catalytically burned gas; a first temperature measurement device T1for the catalyst combustor; and a second temperature measurement device T2for the evaporation chamber. The warm-up method comprises the steps of: transferring the combustion gas with the combustion gas transferring device; stopping the combustion gas transferring device in accordance with a temperature of the catalyst combustor, and transferring fuel to the catalyst combustor with the second injection device; and injecting the raw fuel liquid from the first injection device in accordance with a temperature of the evaporation chamber so as to vaporize the raw fuel liquid within the evaporation chamber.
