    Abstract: A magnet blower thermal conditioning system having a housing, a first blower subassembly in communication with a housing inlet for receiving an inlet fluid flow and a second blower subassembly in communication with the first blower subassembly as well as a housing outlet. Each of the blower subassemblies includes a sleeve shaped support, a plurality of spaced apart magnetic or electromagnetic plates extending radially from the sleeve supports. Conductive components are rotatably supported about the sleeve shaped supports, each incorporating a plurality of linearly spaced and radially projecting conductive plates which alternate with the pluralities of spaced and radially supported magnetic or electromagnetic plates. A motor or input drive rotates the conductive components relative to the magnetic/electromagnetic plates, creating high frequency oscillating magnetic fields and thermally conditioning the fluid flow as it is communicated in succession through the first and second blower subassemblies and through the housing outlet.

    Abstract: An assembly for magnetic induction or magnetocaloric heating of a cooktop surface. One or more magnetic/electromagnetic plates are rotated by a motor or other rotary inducing input in proximity to a stationary supported magnetocaloric heating material conductive plate. Joule heating and eddy currents are generated through oscillating of magnetic fields at a given frequency when magnets/electromagnets rotate, and which is conducted through the magnetocaloric heating material via conduction and emanates from an exposed surface thereof. Conventional heating elements, such as resistor coils, are integrated into the magnetocaloric cooktop material in order to provide fast initial heat up of the materials and can be de-powered once inductive heating of the magnetocaloric material achieves desired performance levels. The housing interior can be sealed and contain a volume of any type of thermal fluid oil, lubricant or refrigerant or any other fluid with high specific heat capacity and high boiling point for providing any heat transfer properties.

    Abstract: A fluid thermal conditioning (heating/cooling) system including a housing containing a fluid holding tank and having an inlet pipe and an outlet pipe. A drive shaft rotatably supports either of a conductive plate or a plurality of spaced apart magnetic or electromagnetic plates positioned within the housing. The conductive plate can be reconfigured as an elongated conductive component supported within the housing and including a plurality of individual plates which alternate in arrangement with axially spaced and radially supported magnetic/electromagnetic plates. Upon rotation of the shaft, an oscillating magnetic field is generated for thermally conditioning the fluid.

    Abstract: A fluid conditioning system having a housing within a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet. A rotating shaft extends within the housing and secures a conductive component exhibiting fluid flow redirecting vanes for communicating an inlet fluid flow with an outlet fluid flow. Magnets or electromagnets are arranged in a stationary array within the housing in proximity to the rotary conductive component and, upon rotating the conductive component relative to the magnetic plates, thermal conditioning of the fluid flow is generated from creation of high frequency oscillating magnetic fields and which is conducted through the rotating component for outputting through the outlet of the housing. Peltier or other thermoelectric generator elements can be incorporated into the housing. The conductive components or plates can include any of a number multi-metal/multi-alloy plate configurations.

    Abstract: A fluid conditioning assembly having a body constructed of an insulating material. An inner housing is configured within the body defining a spiral passageway in communication with an inlet for redirecting a fluid flow through an outlet. A shaft extends within the body and rotatably supports a conductive and fluid redirecting plate or like component positioned within the inner housing. At least one magnet or electromagnet is positioned within the inner housing in proximity to the rotating component, causing thermal conditioning of the fluid flow resulting from creation of high frequency oscillating magnetic fields at a given frequency range, the thermally conditioned fluid flow being redirected through the outlet. Additional features include the ability to generate electricity in a cogeneration application of the assembly. Conventional elements can also be incorporated into the assembly for operating simultaneously or being deactivated/turned off after an initial startup period.

    Abstract: A multi-stage fluid conditioning system having a housing with a fluid inlet and outlet. A shaft extends within the housing and supports a first fan unit with a first magnet/electromagnet plate on an inlet side of said housing and a second fan unit with a second magnet/electromagnet supporting plate on an outlet side of the housing. Each of the first and second magnet/electromagnet supporting plates include at least one vane configured to direct fluid flow. The shaft rotates the plates in order to draw a fluid flow through the inlet and successively across the inlet and outlet sides for thermal conditioning resulting from creation of high frequency oscillating magnetic fields according to a succeeding conditioning operations before being outputted the conditioned fluid from the housing through the fluid outlet.

    Abstract: An electromagnetic induction heating or cooling system including a housing having a fluid air inlet, a sleeve shaped support extending within the housing and including a plurality of spaced apart and radially extending magnetic or electromagnetic plates communicated with the inlet. An elongated conductive component is rotatably supported about the sleeve support and includes linearly spaced apart and radially projecting conductive plates which alternate with the spacing established by the magnetic or electromagnetic plates. A motor rotates the conductive component which, upon rotation of the conductive plates, generates magnetic fields to condition the fluid according to either of induction heating or cooling. The rotating plates of the conductive component are further individually configured so that they simultaneously redirect the conditioned fluid flow through a warm air outlet of the housing.
