Comprehensive Consideration on AMR Configuration for Magnetocaloric Heat Pump
This paper discusses the system performance of a magnetic heat pump with an active magnetic regenerator. The heat-transfer coefficient and pressure drop in the AMR are performed analytically. Measurements on the experimental magnetic heat pump test device ...
2015Characterising Internal Heat Transfer in Thermal Protection Systems
Sophia Haussener, Pénélope Leyland, Nikhil Banerji
Thermal protection systems (TPS) are employed for spacecraft to survive high temperature conditions during atmospheric re-entry. For space shuttle type re-entries, the use of ceramic tiles shield the payload from exposure to these high heat fluxes. Recent ...
2014Data-based identification of a parametric heat pump model
At the LENI a heat pump model has been developed, which aims to simulate a single state compression heat pump in both steady state and transient regime. For gaining the experimental data and for the simulation the same set of input data is used. The goal i ...
2010Modelling of a two-stage magnetic refrigerator with wavy-structure gadolinium heat exchangers
Didier Albert Simon Vuarnoz, Cyrill Gonin
In a rotary magnetic refrigerator, a porous ring is turning in and out of a magnetic field region. At the outlet the adiabatic demagnetization of the magnetocaloric material (refrigerant) produces the "cold energy". The induced cold is described by a corre ...
International Institute of Refrigeration IIR-IIF2009A magnetic heat pump with porous magneto caloric material
Didier Albert Simon Vuarnoz, Marc Diebold
At present magnetic refrigeration shows a realistic potential to penetrate into some niche markets in the field of cold and hot "production". It is well known that a refrigerator for cooling and a heat pump for heating are machines based on the same princi ...
