MAGNETOCALORIC MODULE FOR MAGNETIC REFRIGERATION APPARATUS

摘要

A magnetocaloric module for a magnetic refrigeration apparatus includes: a bed having an inner surface; a magnetocaloric material filled in the bed; and an insulating layer formed over the inner surface, isolating the magnetocaloric material from the bed. With the use of the insulating layer, thermal conduction between the magnetocaloric material and the bed can be reduced and Galvanic corrosion which may occur to the bed can be prevented. Also, a temperature gradient of the magnetocaloric module may be further extended.
