Abstract
A magnetic cooling apparatus having an improved structure in which effective heat exchange may be performed by a heat transfer fluid is provided. The magnetic cooling apparatus includes a magnetic regenerator allowing a heat transfer fluid to pass therethrough and a magnetocaloric material, a magnet to apply a magnetic field to the magnetic regenerator, and a high temperature heat exchanger allowing heat to be dissipated by the heat transfer fluid containing heat received from the magnetic regenerator. The magnetic cooling apparatus includes a low temperature heat exchanger allowing heat to be absorbed by the heat transfer fluid, a pipe to connect the magnetic regenerator, high temperature heat exchanger and low temperature heat exchanger such that the heat transfer fluid circulates through the magnetic regenerator, high temperature heat exchanger and low temperature heat exchanger, and a fluid transport unit to circulate or reciprocate the heat transfer fluid.
