Magnetic
It is a physical process that exploits

refrigeration
the magnetic properties of certain
solid materials to produce
refrigeration.
 To develop more efficient and cost-
effective small-scale H2 liquefiers as
an alternative to vapour-
compression cycles using
magnetic refrigeration
(adiabatic magnetization).
WORKING PRINCIPLE
Rendition of a Rotary
Magnetic Refrigerator

Active Magnetic
Regenerators (AMR's)
 High heat transfer rate
 Low pressure drop of the heat transfer fluid
 High magneto caloric effect
 Sufficient structural integrity
 Low thermal conduction in the direction of
fluid flow
 Low porosity
 Affordable materials
 Ease of manufacture
 COMPARISON
 do the same job, but with metallic
compounds, not gases.
 environmentally friendly alternative to
conventional vapor-cycle refrigeration
 it eliminates the need of the compressor
 save costs
