Abstract
A system is proposed for producing a mixture of hydrogen and methane for automotive fuel by steam reforming gasoline. These gaseous fuels are produced under the hood and only at the rate demanded by the engine. The energy of formation is obtained from waste heat. The results of a computer model of the system are given and a verifying experimental program described.
