%X The reforming of diesel and diesel-like fuels plays a central role in the development of fuel cell systems for on-board power supplies. The vaporization of the fuel via a spray formation and the subsequent mixture with water vapor and air determine the quality of the reforming process, as is shown in this paper. By using a high quality nozzle residual hydrocarbons were below 25 ppmV during the reforming of standard diesel. Through the use of a fuel injector in pulsed operation, the load range was able to be increased from 1:1.67 to 1:6. Spray pattern analyses were conducted using a high-speed camera. The formation of the spray pattern lasted 1.5–2 ms. The testing of a fast-closing magnetic valve manufactured by GSR Ventiltechnik was carried out on the autothermal reformer (ATR) type AH2. It exist not any direct influence of the pulsed operation on hydrogen production.
