Summary

Amidst growing regulations on refrigerant fluids in the refrigeration and air conditioning sectors, there's a clear shift towards alternative technologies like magnetic cooling. The past decade has witnessed a concerted effort by research institutions and commercial entities in advancing magnetic cooling technologies, which are integral in responding to the changing demands of the market.
In this paper, we discuss the development of a new magnetic cooling unit specifically engineered for industrial applications within a defined temperature range demonstrates our expertise in areas such as mechanical engineering, optimal magnetic field arrangement, Active Magnetic Regenerator (AMR) geometry, and magneto-hydraulic synchronization.
We trace the evolution of this magnetocaloric unit from its conceptualization, guided by an Artificial Evolution-based numerical model, to its realization through detailed CAD designs. The paper goes on to elaborate on the unit's technical specifications and initial operational outcomes. These insights underscore the unit's potential efficacy and applicability in magnetic cooling and the broader context of caloric-based refrigeration technologies.
