Anyway, about the magnetic refrigeration I received a research paper published in the Institute of Refrigeration (UK). As I am a member then I get one copy. You can check their site and see if it is free to download.

Do you know if technology that is CFC/HFC free is the same process but using natural gas instead??and if it is the same process, do you think it is better for the environment? sorry i'm useless i'm designing a fridge and i know nothing.
S :confused:
The paper is free but because i am not a member i am unable to access this ...is it possible for you to get me a copy of the magnetic refrigeration???i would really appreciate your help.:DQuote:

I think it has a long way to go yet for ordinary fridges etc.
Dear SamiJo,
I downloaded the paper but the size is more than 100K so I can not attach. Give me your mail so I can mail it to you.

nh3 (or ammonia as it is also known) is a very efficiant refrigerant, but quite nasty with it. you could use a nh3 system with a glycol secondary system to feed heat exchangers. heat absobtion ratios of theise substances are some of the highest around.
