Summary

To help reduce the global warming effect and energy consumption due to prolonged operating time, the authors develop a different refrigerating aggregate to substitute the conventional gas freezers using fluoron/fluoron gas. By altering the magnetic field around certain types of magnetic materials, the authors changed their temperature (magneto-calorific effect). They conducted R&D to convert a magnetic refrigeration technology, which uses this effect, a highly efficient, energy conserving/environmentally friendly technology, to practical applications.
