Abstract
Heat pump 10 has heat-absorbing section 12 that receives heat from an outside and heat-releasing section 13 that releases heat to the outside, for transferring heat between heat-absorbing section 12 and heat-releasing sectioning 13 by reinforcing and reducing a magnetic field applied to a primary working fluid circulating between heat-absorbing section 12 and heat-releasing section 13, wherein the primary working fluid is magnetic particle dispersion 11 containing magnetic particles 11 dispersed in a dispersion medium.
Claims6
A heat pump having a heat-absorbing section that receives heat from an outside and a heat-releasing section that releases heat to the outside, for transferring heat between the heat-absorbing section and the heat-releasing section by reinforcing and reducing a magnetic field applied to a primary working fluid circulating between the heat-absorbing section and the heat-releasing section,
- wherein the primary working fluid is a suspension or colloidal fluid containing magnetic particles dispersed in a dispersion medium.
