Résumé

Since the discovery of the "giant" magnetocaloric effect in 1997 magnetic heating and refrigeration reveals a realistic potential to enter some markets with machines based on the rectilinear or rotational operation principle. The Swiss Federal Office of Energy demanded a feasibility study to evaluate the efficiency and cost of a magnetic heat pump operating in a minimal energy house (Minergy house). This system operates between a ground heat source and a floor heating system and, therefore, shows the following characteristic data: heating power 8 kW, source temperature 0°C, sink temperature 35°C. This technical and economic study reveals that a magnetic heat pump has a higher efficiency than that of a conventional compression/expansion heat pump. The price obtained for such a magnetic heat pump - with the assumption of a basic cost of magneto caloric material of 125 euros/kg - is estimated to be approximately 30% higher than that of a conventional one.
