Abstract: An impeller includes a hub, an outer ring, a plurality of first blades and a plurality of second blades. The plurality of first blades are arranged around the hub at intervals. Each of the plurality of first blades passes through the outer ring, extends inward from the outer ring, and is connected to the hub. The plurality of second blades are arranged around the hub at intervals. Each of the plurality of second blades passes through the outer ring. At least one of the plurality of second blades is disposed between the plurality of first blades. A length of each of the plurality of second blades is between 10% and 45% of a length of each of the plurality of first blades.

Abstract: A magnetic heat exchange unit includes a magnetocaloric material, and at least one fluid pathway. The fluid pathway is formed in the magnetocaloric material and has a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet. A main fluid flowing direction is defined between the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet, and the cross-section of the fluid pathway varies along the main fluid flowing direction.

Abstract: A heat exchanging system is provided for conditioning indoor temperature of a building. The heat exchanging system includes a magnetic refrigerator, an indoor heat exchanger and an outdoor heat exchanger. The indoor heat exchanger is thermally connected to the magnetic refrigerator. The outdoor heat exchanger is thermally connected to the magnetic refrigerator. The outdoor heat exchanger includes a geothermal heat exchanging unit, wherein the geothermal heat exchanging unit is embedded under the ground of a building.

Abstract: A magnetic cooling device is provided, including a magnetocaloric module and a magnetic unit movably disposed around the magnetocaloric module. The magnetocaloric module comprises a bed, a first magnetocaloric member, a second magnetocaloric member, and a third magnetocaloric member received in the bed, wherein the first and third magnetocaloric members are respectively close to a cold end and a hot end of the magnetocaloric module. Specifically, the first, second, and third magnetocaloric members are arranged along a central axis of the magnetocaloric module, and the weight of the third magnetocaloric member exceeds that of the first and second magnetocaloric members. A thermal fluid sequentially flows through the first, second, and third magnetocaloric members to transfer heat from the cold end to the hot end of the magnetocaloric module.

Abstract: A magnetocaloric material structure is disclosed. The magnetocaloric material structure includes a magnetocaloric material body and a plurality of channels. The channels are located in the magnetocaloric material body. The cross-section of the channels has a center disposed according to the following formula: L32?L12+L22. Wherein, L1 is the minimum value of the length of the lines between the adjacent centers parallel or perpendicular to a direction; L2 is the maximum value of the length of the lines between the adjacent centers parallel or perpendicular to the direction; L3 is the minimum value of the length of the lines between the adjacent centers not parallel or perpendicular to the direction. Another magnetocaloric material structure, which includes a magnetocaloric material body and a plurality of channels, is disclosed. The cross-section of each channel is in a non-circular and non-rectangular shape, which is a symmetric or asymmetric shape.
