This article presents the magnetic refrigeration technology that is based on the magnetocaloric effect, heating or cooling of a magnetic material when the applied magnetic field changes. The first part of the paper shows an introductory study of the evolution of this technology over the years, continuing with the presentation of the magnetic regenerator model, which is composed of two heat exchangers with parallel plates of magnetocaloric material, gadolinium and are separated by heat transfer agent flow channels. The benefits and advantages of this technology are described, in the context of the current stage of development.
