December 4, 2013
The present invention is a temperature control system incorporated in an automobile provided at least with a motor chamber on which a secondary cell or a fuel cell is mounted for driving wheels by a motor and a cabin and controlling a temperature of portions of the automobile, and the temperature control system includes at least one catalytic heaters and a fuel tank, the catalyst heater generates heat when an oxidizing gas and fuel from the fuel tank are supplied to the catalyst, and at least a part of the gas supplied to the catalyst and heated by the generated heat is subjected to circulative supply to the catalyst, and the temperature of the portion of the automobile is controlled by using heat generated by the catalytic heater. As a result, a system is provided which can efficiently control the temperature of a portion of the automobile so that deterioration of performances as an automobile such as electric vehicles and the like can be prevented and comfortable running and the like can be realized even in a cold region and the like.
