If the heat storage material is in the liquid phase in the heater 13, the heat storage material has a certain amount of mass and thus exhibits a relatively large heat capacity.
- the temperature of a heat storage material does not change immediately.

- the ignition point of the heat storage material is, for example, in the range of 200 ° C to 500 ° C. Thereby, the evaporation temperature of the working fluid of the Rankine cycle circuit 20 can be set high. Therefore, the power generator 1A can exhibit high power generation efficiency.
- the heat storage material may be oil. Since oil usually does not easily evaporate, it can be suitably used as a heat storage material. As oil, mineral oil, synthetic oil, vegetable oil, etc. can be used. In particular, silicone oil does not volatilize even at 250 ° C. and does not ignite, so it can be suitably used as a heat storage material.

- the cogeneration system 10F is configured in the same manner as the cogeneration system 10E unless otherwise specified.
- the water supply pipe 91 and the hot water pipe 93 are connected to the cooling unit 31, whereby the flow path 39 of the fluid to be heated is configured.
- the heated fluid flowing through the cooling unit 31 and the working fluid flowing through the cooled unit 23A exchange heat.
- the fluid to be heated is water.
- the low temperature water supplied from the water supply pipe 91 is heated to become hot water by exchanging heat with the working fluid flowing through the cooled portion 23A. And this warm water is supplied to the outside from the hot water outlet pipe 93.
- the present invention is useful for a power generation apparatus that evaporates a working fluid of a Rankine cycle circuit using a combustion gas of a solid fuel such as a wood pellet, a wood chip, or coal, and a cogeneration system including the power generation apparatus.
