| Abstract | The magnetocaloric effect (MCE) is a magneto-thermodynamic phenomenon that heats and cools specific alloys through exposure to an alternating magnetic field. This phenomenon has the potential to create a temperature difference in a heat carrier mimicking a conventional vapor compression refrigeration cycle without harmful chemical byproducts. This research investigates the design of an experimental testing mechanism for identifying key interactions between design variables, while maximize temperature differential Key noise parameters (KNP). Fluid flow rate, magnetic field exposure time, and variations in heat exchanger configuration are explored. Understanding the significant interactions between these variables will lead to the design of a functional prototype that serves as a basis for future development in applications of the MCE for large-scale cooling systems. In this work, elemental gadolinium is used due to its high magnetic entropy change, and consequently high reversible temperature change when exposed to a magnetic field. An aqueous propylene glycol solution serves as the heat carrier based on its high heat capacity and basic pH level, reducing the possibility of degradation within the magnetocaloric material. The magnetic field is supplied by a grade N52 magnet with a magnetic field strength of approximately 0.9 Tesla. Based on this analysis, a concept stage design for experimentally maximizing the impact of the magnetocaloric effect is presented. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
