Abstract

This paper presents a set of intermediate results related to the ELICiT project, whose purpose is the application of magnetic cooling technology within domestic refrigeration appliances. An innovative Simulation Toolbox, able to offer a better support to designers during the design process, was implemented. This way, a real time comparison of both economic and environmental variables related to magnetic cooling systems will be available. After the implementation phase, the Simulation Toolbox was directly tested in a real industrial context. Finally, gathered data were compared with conventional refrigeration solutions.
