“…Future developments are expected in all aspects of magnetic refrigeration to be rapidly forthcoming because the traditional vapor compression technology is asymptotically approaching its technical limitations for additional increases in energy efficiency, and because of environmental concerns, while magnetic refrigeration promises significant improvements in both [4,5]. Several teams in the U.S. [6], the Netherlands [7], Switzerland [8], China [9], Canada [10], Japan [11] and France [12] are working on magnetic cooling, in order to show up refrigerators or heating and air-conditioning applications since magnetic refrigeration has already made the proof-of-principle so attractive that more and more interest is shown all over the world.…”
