Magnetic cooling (MC) is a thermal management passive heat pump technology based on the thermomagnetic convection (TMC) of a ferrofluid (FF). Thermomagnetic convection is the phenomenon of convective heat transfer by the motion of a FF, induced by the combined effect of thermal gradient and the loca...
