Abstract: A magneto-caloric thermal diode assembly includes a magneto-caloric cylinder. Each of a plurality of thermal stages includes a plurality of magnets and a non-magnetic ring. The plurality of magnets is distributed along a circumferential direction within the non-magnetic ring in each of the plurality of thermal stages. A variable speed motor is coupled to one of the magneto-caloric cylinder and the plurality of thermal stages. The variable speed motor is operable to rotate the one of the magneto-caloric cylinder and the plurality of thermal stages relative to the other of the magneto-caloric cylinder and the plurality of thermal stages.

Abstract: A thermoelectric conversion element 10 includes an anomalous Nernst material 11 having the anomalous Nernst effect, in which: the anomalous Nernst material 11 includes at least an element having the inverse spin-Hall effect; and the element is spin-polarized. By applying, for example, a magnetic field to such the thermoelectric conversion element 10 in the x direction and a temperature gradient thereto in the z direction, thermoelectromotive force can be taken out from terminals 12.

Abstract: A passive thermal oscillator combines a thermoelectric device and a passive analog electrical circuit to produce a time-oscillating temperature difference. The oscillator makes use of a temperature difference imposed across a thermoelectric device to produce a Seebeck voltage to periodically trigger electrical current to pass through a switch. The periodic electrical current causes periodic Peltier cooling producing a time-oscillating temperature difference across the thermoelectric device. There is no requirement for additional external energy input because the thermal energy generates a voltage that is used as the driving force. The operation is purely passive. So long as there is a temperature difference across the thermoelectric device, then the passive thermal oscillator oscillates. The passive thermal oscillator can integrate multiple energy conversion device technologies to operate cooperatively. The cooperation of multiple energy conversion technologies yields a much higher overall system efficiency than just the conversion of thermal energy into electrical energy.

Abstract: A magneto-caloric thermal diode assembly includes a magneto-caloric cylinder with a plurality of magneto-caloric stages. Each of the plurality of magneto-caloric stages has a respective Currie temperature. The magneto-caloric cylinder has a length along an axial direction. The plurality of magneto-caloric stages is distributed along the length of the magneto-caloric cylinder. A plurality of thermal stages also has a length along the axial direction. The length of the plurality of thermal stages is less than the length of the magneto-caloric cylinder. The magneto-caloric cylinder is received within the plurality of thermal stages such that the magneto-caloric cylinder is movable along the axial direction relative to the plurality of thermal stages.

Abstract: Methods for increasing the power output from a heat engine based on temporary electrical and magnetic remanence is achieved by a means of cancelling the power limitation caused by re-magnetization fields and methods for varying the turns-ratio of the output coils as the flux decays.

Abstract: A heat generator (1) comprises at least one thermal module (1′) which contains at least two adjacent magnetocaloric elements (2), and a common distribution chamber (3), associated with a heat transfer fluid circulation device (4), fluidly connects the adjacent magnetocaloric elements (2) with one another. Two end chambers (5, 6) are associated with a circulation means (7) and fluidly connected each with the two magnetocaloric elements (2) located at the hot end (9) and a cold (11) end of the thermal module (1). A magnetic arrangement of the heat generator (1) subjects each of the magnetocaloric element (2) to a variable magnetic field. The circulation mechanism (4), associated with the common distribution chamber (3), moves the heat transfer fluid simultaneously through the two adjacent magnetocaloric elements (2) in different circulation directions.
