Ali ISMAIL : "Multiphysics approach for the optimal design of innovative magnetocaloric regenerators"

Abstract : To limit the use of compression machines using greenhouse gases, alternatives machines based on active materials are proposed. One of them exploits the magnetocaloric effect which induces temperature increase in the material when it is immersed in a magnetic field, and conversely a decrease of its temperature when it is extracted. This provides a magnetic technology for heat and cold production that requires to be optimized. The heart of a magnetocaloric system is an active regenerative heat exchanger which undergoes magnetization / demagnetization cycles, and transfers calorific power between two heat sources generally thanks to a heat transfer fluid. This work realizes a multi-physics approach for the optimal design of innovative magnetocaloric regenerators [...]
