A heat generating cell includes: a support having tubular shape; and a multilayer film formed on an inner peripheral surface of the support for generating heat by occlusion and discharge of hydrogen. A heat generating device includes: a plurality of the heat generating cells; a sealed container; a plurality of separators dividing an inside of the sealed container into a first space, a second space, and a third space in an axial direction of the sealed container, the first space and the second space being locating at both ends in the axial direction in the sealed container; and a heater for heating each of the plurality of heat generating cells. The plurality of heat generating cells penetrate through the plurality of separators, and both ends of each of the plurality of heat generating cells in an axial direction are respectively opened to the first space and the second space.
