Design improvements of a permanent magnet active magnetic refrigerator / D.S. Arnold in International journal of refrigeration, Vol. 37 N° 1 (Janvier 2014) 

Public ISBD [article]  in International journal of refrigeration > Vol. 37 N° 1 (Janvier 2014) . - pp. 99-105 Titre : Design improvements of a permanent magnet active magnetic refrigerator Titre original : Amélioration de la conception d'un réfrigérateur magnétique actif permanent Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : D.S. Arnold, Auteur ; A. Tura, Auteur ; Alex Ruebsaat-Trott, Auteur Année de publication : 2014 Article en page(s) : pp. 99-105 Note générale : Refrigeration Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Permanent  magnet  magnetic  refrigerator;  AMR  cycle Résumé : A second-generation room-temperature permanent magnet active magnetic regenerator test apparatus using Halbach arrays is described. The magnet arrays consist of three concentric cylinders. Each cylinder is constructed using 12 permanent magnet segments. The inner magnet array is stationary while the intermediate and outer arrays are designed to rotate in opposite directions so as to create a sinusoidal magnetic field waveform with a stationary field direction. The fluid flow system utilizes a novel check valve configuration so that fluid dead volumes are minimized. The system construction is modular to allow for quick replacement of material or system components. Fringing fields near the outer and inner diameters of the arrays are found to create large forces between arrays leading to large torques. Test results using 650 g of gadolinium spheres produce a no-load temperature span of 33 K at 0.8 Hz.

Experimental analysis of a two-material active magnetic regenerator / D.S. Arnold in International journal of refrigeration, Vol. 34 N° 1 (Janvier 2011) 

Public ISBD [article]  in International journal of refrigeration > Vol. 34 N° 1 (Janvier 2011) . - pp. 178-191 Titre : Experimental analysis of a two-material active magnetic regenerator Titre original : Analyse expérimentale d'un régénérateur magnétique actif faisant appel à deux matériaux Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : D.S. Arnold, Auteur ; A. Tura, Auteur ; A. Rowe, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : pp. 178-191 Note générale : Génie Mécanique Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Magnetic  refrigeration  COP-exergy  Performance  Gadolinium-cost Index. décimale : 621.5 Energie pneumatique. Machinerie et outils. Réfrigération Résumé : Experimental results of an active magnetic regenerator (AMR) composed of two equal volumes of gadolinium and Gd0.85Er0.15 using 2 T and 5 T are reported. Drive forces and system losses are measured as a function of thermal load and magnetic field. Metrics for coefficient of performance and efficiency are defined and used to distinguish between regenerator and device performance. Results suggest the largest temperature spans are expected to occur when each material is operating with its average temperature near their Curie temperatures. Force measurements indicate that mechanical losses and pumping power are the most significant contributions to network while the net magnetic work is too small to be resolved. COP values for the magnetic cycle are as high as 2.4 while efficiencies are all less than 0.15. A maximum exergetic cooling of 1.94 W is estimated with a corresponding specific exergetic cooling power of 23 W T−1L−1.
