SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR REVERSE DEGRADATION OF A MAGNETOCALORIC MATERIAL

摘要

A method includes identifying at least partial degradation of a magnetocaloric material in a magnetic cooling system, wherein the magnetiocaloric material has a Curie temperature. The method also includes regenerating the magnetocaloric material by maintaining the magnetocaloric material at a regenerating temperature, wherein the regenerating temperature is different from the Curie temperature of the magnetocaloric material.
