Abstract

A system for converting fuel and air into reformate with a reformer which has a reaction space, a nozzle for supplying a fuel/air mixture to the reaction space, and a fuel feed for supplying fuel to the nozzle. In the reaction space, there is a breaker body for a fuel/air mixture supplied through the nozzle.
