Design and construction of a static magnetic refrigerator operating between 1.8 and 4.5 K.

Summary

The authors have constructed a static magnetic refrigerator with a capacity of about 20 watts, operating on a quasi-Carnot cycle between 1.8 and 4.5 K. The active core, which contains 10.1 kg of single-crystal gadolinium-gallium garnet, is magnetized and demagnetized by a 3.5 T pulsed-field, low-loss superconducting magnet operating at 4.5 K.
