Saito, Tadahiko Kobayashi, Shiori Kaji, Jing Li, and Hideki Nakagome almost 30% of total electrical power use. Therefore, Abstract—We have developed magnetic refrigerants particles environmentally friendly and efficient new refrigeration of ferromagnetic Gd-based alloys and a primitive magnetic technologies are required. refrigeration apparatus using permanent magnets to clarify its The Magnetocaloric effect [1] is a thermodynamically applicability to common refrigeration. Working temperature reversible phenomenon involving energy conversion between range of the magnetic refrigeration can be controlled with the magnetic and thermal energy triggered by the application of Curie temperatures of the magnetic refrigerants. Several kind an external magnetic field on a magnetic refrigerant. The of Gd-based spherically-shaped magnetic refrigerant particles have fabricated by a rotating electrode process. Operation of an magnetocaloric effect can be used to build a thermal cycle active magnetic regenerative (AMR) refrigeration cycle with similar to the gas compression cycle as shown in Fig. 1; this is Gd-based magnetic refrigerant particles enabled temperature called magnetic refrigeration. Historically, magnetic spans of more than 40 °C to be obtained at room temperature. refrigeration using TI - Environmentally Friendly Magnetic Refrigeration Technology Using Ferromagnetic Gd Alloys JF - International Journal of Environmental Science and Development DO - 10.7763/ijesd.2016.v7.791 DA - 2016-01-01 UR - https://www.deepdyve.com/lp/unpaywall/environmentally-friendly-magnetic-refrigeration-technology-using-hQxhfe5UHU DP - DeepDyve ER -
