Magnetocaloric thermal generator and method of cooling same

A method of cooling a secondary fluid by a magnetocaloric thermal generator (10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80) that has at least one primary circuit (P10, P20, P30, P40, P50, P60, P70) fluidically connecting magnetocaloric elements (M11, M12, M21, M22, M111, M112, M113, M114, M221, M222, M223, M224) by a heat transfer primary fluid flowing alternately back and forth, the magnetocaloric elements (M11, M12, M21, M22, M111, M112, M113, M114, M221, M222, M223, M224) being subjected to a variable magnetic field of a magnetic system (2) that alternately creates, in each of the magnetocaloric elements (M11, M12, M21, M22, M111, M112, M113, M114, M221, M222, M223, M224), a magnetic heating phase and a magnetic cooling phase generator, the primary circuit comprises a cold side (F) and a hot side (C) at which the magnetocaloric elements (M11, M12;

• M111, M112 et M21, M22, M223, M224) are fluidically connected with one another, at least one of the hot (C) and the cold (F) sides of the primary circuit includes at least one outlet point (S1, S2, S3, S4, S5, S6) connected to an injection point (I1, I2, I3, I4, I5, I6, I7, I8, I9, I10, I11) provided at the other one of the cold (F) the hot (C) side of the primary circuit by at least one bypass pipe (D1, D2, D3, D4, D5, D6, D7, D8, D9, D10, D11) allowing the primary fluid to be displaced only from the outlet point (S1, S2, S3, S4, S5, S6) towards the injection point (I1, I2, I3, I4, I5, I6, I7, I8, I9, I10, I11), the method comprising:
• thermally connecting the secondary circuit (6) in which the secondary fluid circulates by at least one heat exchange zone (ZF1, ZF2, ZF3, ZF4, ZF5, ZF6, ZF7, ZF8, ZF9, ZF10, ZF11) to the at least one bypass pipe (D1, D2, D3, D4, D5, D6, D7, D8, D9, D10, D11) of the magnetocaloric thermal generator, and
• continuously circulating the secondary fluid in the secondary circuit.
