ABSTRACT:
A refrigeration apparatus employing a working fluid of magnetic dipoles. The apparatus exploits a phase change in the working fluid from unaligned magnetic dipoles to aligned magnetic dipoles, so that no compression of the fluid is required. In a first embodiment, alignment is achieved by judicious application of RF fields tuned to the resonance frequency of the dipoles. In a second embodiment, alignment and randomization of orientation is achieved by operating always below the Curie temperature, and using geometry of the fluid conduit to permit or disallow the formation of a self aligning magnetic field. In both embodiments, the aligned portion of the fluid flow corresponds to the compressor-radiator-expansion valve poriton of the conventional cycle, and the unaligned portion corresponds to the vapor portion of the conventional cycle.
