Why Cooltech?
The Problems
o
o
o
o
o

Environmental and economic issues for compressor-based refrigeration systems

The refrigeration and air conditioning sectors: 13% of GHG emissions by 2030
F-gas refrigerants: high impact on Global Warming - increasing regulations
Systems prone to refrigerant leaks: hazardous for the environment
Low Coefficient of Performance (COP): high energy consumption
High pressure systems: costly maintenance operations

The Solution

The Benefits

The Magnetic Refrigeration System (MRS): a sustainable alternative

No refrigerant gas (water-based coolant liquid): Eliminate harmful emissions

Low pressure system, no gas: safe and reliable quasi-indefinite lifespan
Less noise, less vibration: environmental comfort
High Coefficient of Performance (COP): reduce energy consumption by up to 40%

A gas-free, cost-effective and safe innovation

Basics of Magnetic Refrigeration

Magnetic cooling: the physical principle

Magnetic Refrigeration is based on the

Magneto-Caloric Effect (MCE).
The MCE infers that some metal alloys or
Magneto-Caloric Materials (MCM) heat up
when immersed in a magnetic field and cool
down when removed from the magnetic field.

E = m Cp t

A thermal span is generated by applying a

series of Magnetization-Demagnetization
cycles on MCM.

Simplified View of a Magnetic Refrigeration System (MRS)

In the magneto-caloric heat pump, heat is transferred from the cold interior of the refrigerator to the warm external air
by circulating a water-based coolant through the magneto-caloric materials as they cycle in and out of the magnetic field.
