The discovery of giant caloric effects and further investigation on device systems that can
compete with current heat management technologies in terms of efficiency have led to a …

Most existing room temperature magnetic refrigeration (MR) prototypes are based on the
concept of an active magnetic regenerator (AMR). However, for these MR prototypes, three …

One of the main problems in the framework of magnetic refrigeration regards low adiabatic
temperature changes that occur in the magnetocaloric materials, which limits the …

A number of magnetic refrigeration prototypes have been developed in recent years.
Nevertheless, their optimization remains a challenging process. This paper presents an …

This is the first part of a two-part paper on the synchronization between the applied magnetic
field and fluid displacement waveforms in a gadolinium packed sphere active magnetic …

A numerical analysis was conducted to study a room temperature magnetocaloric
refrigerator with a 16-layer parallel plates active magnetic regenerator (AMR). Sixteen layers …

The active magnetic regenerator (AMR) cycle has the potential to reduce energy
consumption and mitigate environmental pollutants. While layering regenerators with …

A sphere-packed regenerator is often used in the active magnetic regenerator (AMR) of a
magnetic refrigerator. When simulating such a regenerator, porous media instead of the …

In magnetic refrigerators, operation profiles (including flow profile and magnetic field profile)
have great influence on system performance. This paper focuses on the study of the …

A comparison study is performed between results obtained from experiments and modelling
of single and multi-layer Mn–Fe–Si–P regenerators. This work builds on top of previously …
