BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The invention relates to a magnetic flux detection apparatus and, in particular, to a magnetic flux detection apparatus which can detect the major amount of the magnetic flux or the major magnetic flux path to determine the voltage generated by the magnetic flux detection apparatus so as to apply the best thermal energy-applying algorithm into the magnetic system to acquire power efficiently.
2. Description of the Related Art
There are many ways to produce renewable power such as using solar panel to collect the sunlight and convert the sunlight into power. The conventional magneto caloric effect (MCE) principle is well-known to be applied to manufacture the magnetic refrigerator which is described in the published paper “Performance of a room-temperature rotary magnetic refrigerator”, International Journal of Refrigeration 29 (2006) 1327-1331. For the magnetic cooling application, the magnetic field is chosen to change the magnetic phase of the magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) so as to cause the change of magnetic entropy of the MCEM. Therefore, the temperature of the MCEM will also be changed. The larger the magnetic moment changes, the larger cooling capacity will be achieved.
As shown in FIG. 1a and FIG. 1b, a conventional magnetic refrigerator 1 mainly includes a motor 124, a pump 108, a rotary value 104, a permanent magnet 120, an iron yoke 126, and four active magnetic regeneration (AMR) beds 122a, 122b, 122c, and 122d. Each AMR bed which is formed of one kind of MCEM is composed of Gd-based alloy spheres. The motor 124 rotates with the permanent 120. The magnetic phase of the AMR bed changes so as to result the change of magnetic entropy of the AMR bed. Therefore, the temperature of the AMR bed will also change. The pump 108 circulates the heat transfer fluid (water) and the rotary valve 104 switches the flow lines. Initially, the water is cooled as it is pumped from the hot end to the cold end of the demagnetized beds. Subsequently, the water picks up a thermal load as it passes through the cold stage, and then absorbs heat as it travels from the cold end to the hot end of the magnetized beds. The heat is given up as the water passes through the exhaust-side heat exchanger 112.
FIG. 2 shows relationship curves of the magnetic field versus the magnetized scale of the Gadolinium which is one kind of magneto caloric effect material (MCEM), and the curves also show the magnetization of Gadolinium is dependent to the temperature. For the environmental protection, other method to acquire the renewable energy is necessary. The MCEM is not only suitable for the magnetic refrigeration but also for the heat-power conversion application to output the power.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The following description is of the best-contemplated mode of carrying out the invention. This description is made for the purpose of illustrating the general principles of the invention and should not be taken in a limiting sense. The scope of the invention is best determined by reference to the appended claims.
The magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) is not only suitable for the magnetic refrigeration but also for the heat-power conversion application. It is an important subject to provide an acquiring renewable energy system (which is also a magnetic system in this invention) and a magnetic flux detection apparatus so as to apply the best thermal energy-applying algorithm into the magnetic system to output power efficiently. In addition, different kinds of magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) have their own Curie temperature (Tc). The magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) usually has the dramatically magnetic moment change when the temperature of the materials is changed around its Curie temperature (Tc). Such kinds of materials are perfectly suitable for heat to power conversion.
As shown in FIG. 3a, a heat-power conversion magnetic device 3a includes a high permeability magnetic material 306, a rotation axis 302, three magneto caloric effect materials (MCEMs) 304a, 304b, and 304c, and a permanent magnetic element 300 such as a permanent magnet or a Halbach-array magnet. The three magneto caloric effect materials (MCEMs) 304a, 304b, and 304c are disposed to the high permeability magnetic material 306. The permanent magnetic element 300 is coupled to the magneto caloric effect materials (MCEMs) 304a, 304b, and 304c. Two major magnetic flux paths 308a, 308b are formed when the hot thermal energy is applied to the magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304a and the cold thermal energy is applied to the magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304b and magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304c. When the hot thermal energy is applied to magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304a, the magnetic moment of magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304a is changed to low magnetic moment state. In addition, when the cold thermal energy is applied to magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304b and 304c; the magnetic moment of magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304b and 304c are changed to high state. One major magnetic flux 308b generated by the permanent magnetic element 300 flows through magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304b, high permeability magnetic material 306 and magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304c then returns to the permanent magnetic element 300. The other major magnetic flux 308a generated by the permanent magnetic element 300 flows through magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304b, high permeability magnetic material 306 and magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304c then return to the permanent magnetic element 300. The heat-power conversion magnetic device 3a now is in its static state and maintains the permanent magnetic element 300 in horizontal position with the lowest magnetic resistance.
As shown in FIG. 3b, the structure of the heat-power conversion magnetic device 3b is the same with the heat-power conversion magnetic device 3a. When the hot thermal energy is applied to the magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304b and cold thermal energy is applied to magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304a and magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304c, the magnetic moment of magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304b is at low level state and magnetic moment of the magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304a and 304c are at high level state. The magnetic pole N of the permanent magnetic element 300 will be attracted by magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304a and magnetic pole S of the permanent magnetic element 300 will be attracted by magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304c. Therefore, the permanent magnetic element 300 will rotate and the mechanical torque is generated through the rotation axis 302. If it continuously changes the heating and cooling sequence of magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304a, 304b and 304c, it will produce continuous mechanical torque output and the mechanical torque can be converted into power.
The portion “A” in FIG. 3a and FIG. 3b represents that the major amount of magnetic flux flows in clockwise (CW) direction when the magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304a is heated (FIG. 3a) and the other major magnetic flux flows in counterclockwise (CCW) direction when the magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304b is heated (FIG. 3b). It is obviously, heating and cooling the magneto caloric effect materials (MCEMs) 304a, 304b, and 304c will change the magnetic moment of the magneto caloric effect materials (MCEMs) 304a, 304b, and 304c so as to induce the change of the amount of the magnetic flux.
As shown in FIG. 4a, a magnetic flux detection apparatus 4a is provided to achieve a better performance as a first preferred embodiment of the invention comparing with the heat-power conversion magnetic device 3a and 3b. The magnetic flux detection apparatus 4a includes a magnetic material 306, at least one heated or cooled magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304a, 304b, and 304c, and the permanent magnetic element 300 such as a permanent magnet or a Halbach-array magnet, a magnetic sensing element 400, and at least one major amount of magnetic flux or major magnetic flux path 308a, and 308b. The heated magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304a and the cooled magneto caloric effect materials (MCEMs) 304b, and 304c are disposed to and attached along with the magnetic material 306. The permanent magnetic element 300 is coupled to and disposed in the magneto caloric effect materials (MCEMs) 304a, 304b, and 304c. The major amount of magnetic flux or the major magnetic flux path 308a is formed and passing through the permanent magnetic element 300, the cooled magneto caloric effect materials (MCEMs) 304b, 304c, and the first portion A1 of the magnetic material 306. The magnetic material 306 can be a high permeability magnetic material or a yoke. The magnetic material 306 is a circle-shaped structure in the first preferred embodiment. However, the magnetic material 306 can also be a oval-shaped, rectangular-shaped, annular-shaped, or polygonal-shaped structure. The magnetic sensing element 400, such as a coil, surrounds the first portion A1 of the magnetic material 306 senses the major amount of the magnetic flux or the major magnetic flux path 308a to induce a voltage in the coil when the major amounts magnetic flux are changed from the status in FIG. 4a to the status in FIG. 4b as a second preferred embodiment of the invention. In FIG. 4b, the hot thermal energy is applied to the magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304b and cold thermal energy is applied to magneto caloric effect materials (MCEMs) 304a and 304c. The major amount of magnetic flux or the magnetic flux path has changed. Therefore, the magnetic sensing element 400 can be used for outputting a sensing voltage and a correspondingly sensing voltage value.
From the Faraday's induction law,

E=−NS(dB/dt),

wherein E is the induction voltage, N is the amount of turns of coil, S is the area where the magnetic flux passes, and B is the magnetic flux density.
The voltage detection can be used for determining when the thermal energy shall be applied. For example, as shown in FIG. 4c, the structure of the magnetic flux detection apparatus 4c is the same with the structure as described in FIG. 4a and further includes a recording module 430 and a controlling module 420 according to a third preferred embodiment of the invention. The recording module 430 has a sensing voltage table recording at least one predetermined sensing voltage and corresponding sensing voltage value respectively. The controlling module 420 receives the sensing voltage and acquires the correspondingly sensing voltage value from the recording module 430, wherein when the correspondingly sensing voltage value reaches the predetermined sensing voltage value in the recording module 430, the controlling module 420 generates the thermal controlling signal to heat or cool the magneto caloric effect materials (MCEMs) 304a, 304b, and 304c. The permanent magnetic element 300 is a magnet with at least two magnetic poles and rotates after the controlling module 420 generates the thermal controlling signal to heat or cool the magneto caloric effect materials (MCEMs) 304a, 304b, and 304c. 
In the third preferred embodiment shown in FIG. 4c, the cooled magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304b will be heated periodically and the heated magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304a will be alternately cooled periodically and disposed to the magnetic material 306, and the permanent magnetic element 300 with at least two magnetic poles rotates after the controlling module 420 generates the thermal controlling signal to heat the cooled magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304b or cool the heated magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304a periodically.
As shown in FIG. 4d, a magnetic flux detection apparatus 4d is provided as a fourth preferred embodiment of the invention. The magnetic flux detection apparatus 4d includes a magnetic material 406, at least one heated or cooled magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304a, 304b, and 304c, a permanent magnetic element 300, at least one magnetic sensing element 412, at least one major first amounts of magnetic flux or first magnetic flux paths 408a, and 408b, and at least one major second amount of magnetic flux or major second magnetic flux path 408c. The magnetic material 406 has at least one bypass magnetic material 410 or at least one bypass yoke 410. The heated or cooled magneto caloric effect materials (MCEMs) 304a, 304b, and 304c are disposed to the magnetic material 406. The permanent magnetic element 300 is coupled to the magneto caloric effect materials (MCEMs) 304a, 304b, and 304c. The magnetic sensing element 412, such as a coil, surrounds a first portion of the bypass magnetic material 410 or a first portion of the bypass yoke 410. The major first amounts of magnetic flux or major first magnetic flux paths 408a, and 408b are formed and passing through the permanent magnetic element 300, the cooled magneto caloric effect materials (MCEMs) 304b, and 304c, and the magnetic material 406. The major second amount of magnetic flux or major second magnetic flux path 408c is formed and passing through the permanent magnetic element 300, the cooled magneto caloric effect materials (MCEMs) 304b, and 304c, and the bypass magnetic material 410 or the bypass yoke 410. The magnetic sensing element 412 senses the major second amount of the magnetic flux or the major second magnetic flux path 410 for outputting a sensing voltage.
In addition, the structure of the magnetic flux detection apparatus 4d can further includes a recording module, such as the recording module 430 shown in FIG. 4c and a controlling module 420, such as the controlling module 420 shown in FIG. 4c. The structures and functions of the recording module 430 and a controlling module 420 have been described in the above paragraph. Therefore, it is not described here again.
As shown in FIG. 4e, a side schematic view of a magnetic force generating device 4e with a single-layer magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) is demonstrated. The magnetic force generating device 4e includes the hot side chamber 450, the cool side chamber 454 and the single-layer magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 452. The magnetic force generating device 4e utilizes the magneto-caloric-effect properties of certain materials, such as Gadolinium or certain alloys and forms a single-layer magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 452. The magnetic force generating device 4e also has the particularity of magnetizing when a cool fluid is filled in the cool side chamber 454 so as to cool the single-layer magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 452. Therefore, the amount of the magnetic flux or the magnetic flux path can be formed from the permanent magnetic element to the single-layer magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 452. On the contrary, the magnetic force generating device 4e has the particularity of demagnetizing when a heated fluid is filled in the hot side chamber 450 so as to heat up the single-layer magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 452. Therefore, the amount of magnetic flux or the magnetic flux path can not be formed from the permanent magnetic element to the single-layer magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 452. In addition, the heated or cooled magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 452 is a single-layer magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) with a single curie temperature.
As shown in FIG. 4f and FIG. 4g, a side schematic view of a magnetic force generating device with a multiple-layer magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) is demonstrated. The magnetic force generating device 4f includes the hot side chamber 450, the cool side chamber 454 and the multiple-layer magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 460 (four-layer MCEM) with a plurality of Curie temperatures (four curie temperature). Each layer of the multiple-layer magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 460 has its own Curie temperature. For example, the layer 462 has the Curie temperature Tc1, the layer 464 has the Curie temperature Tc2, the layer 466 has the Curie temperature Tc3, and the layer 468 has the Curie temperature Tc4. The way to heat or cool the magnetic force generating device 4f is the same as described in the above paragraph. Therefore, it is not described here again. Each layer of the multiple-layers magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 460 is disposed sequentially according to the single curie temperature of each layer of the multiple-layers magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 460 (Tc1>Tc2>Tc3>Tc4). Pushing the working fluid of hot side chamber 450 and cool side chamber 454 back and forth, a temperature gradient is generated in the flow direction as shown in FIG. 4g. When the working fluid is pushed from hot side chamber 450 to cool side chamber 454, the temperature of each layer of the multiple-layers magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 460 is higher than its Curie temperature. When the working fluid is pushed from cool side chamber 454 to hot side chamber 450, the temperature of each layer of the multiple-layers magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 460 is lower than its Curie temperature. The arrows A, B, C, and D represent the four processes of FIG. 4g and show the change of temperature. Back to the FIG. 4a-4d, the magneto caloric effect materials (MCEMs) 304a, 304b, and 304c can be a single-layer magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) having a single curie temperature or a multiple-layers magneto caloric effect material (MCEMs) having a plurality of curie temperatures.
As shown in FIG. 5a, a magnetic flux detection apparatus 5a is provided as a fifth preferred embodiment of the invention. The magnetic flux detection apparatus 5a includes a magnetic material 306, at least one heated or cooled magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304a, 304b, and 304c, and the permanent magnetic element 300 such as a permanent magnet or a Halbach-array magnet, three magnetic sensing elements 500, 510, and 520, and at least one major amounts of magnetic flux or major magnetic flux path 508a, and 508b. The three magnetic sensing element 500, 510, and 520, such as three coils, surround respectively in the three portions of the magnetic material 306 and sense the major amounts of the magnetic flux or the major magnetic flux paths 508a, 508b, and 508c to induce voltages in each of the coils when the major amount of magnetic flux is changed from the status in FIG. 5a to the status in FIG. 5b which shows a sixth preferred embodiment of the invention. Because most amounts of the magnetic flux generated by the permanent magnetic element 300 will flow through the three magnetic sensing elements 500, 510, and 520. When the magnetic property of magneto caloric effect material (MCEM) 304a, 304b and 304c change the distribution of magnetic flux and the magnetic flux change can be detected by the three magnetic sensing elements 500, 510, and 520 together.

Please refer back to FIG. 1a and FIG. 1b. The application of magnetic sensing element is not only limited to above heat-power conversion, but it is also suitable for applying to the conventional magnetic refrigerator 1.
Please refer to FIG. 13a and FIG. 13b. FIG. 13a is a cross sectional view of the conventional magnetic refrigerator including four sets active magnetic regenerator (AMR) beds and four magnetic sensing elements forming one part of magnetic flux detection apparatus 13c in a first state, the cold water is pumped through the first active magnetic regenerator (AMR) bed set 1304a and the third active magnetic regenerator (AMR) bed set 1304c. FIG. 13b demonstrates the conventional magnetic refrigerator 1 including four sets active magnetic regenerator (AMR) beds and four magnetic sensing elements forming one part of magnetic flux detection apparatus 13c in a second state, the cold water is pumped through the second active magnetic regenerator (AMR) bed set 1304b and the fourth active magnetic regenerator (AMR) bed set 1304d. 
A magnetic flux detection apparatus 13a includes a magnetic material 1306, at least one active magnetic regenerator (AMR) bed 1304a, 1304b, 1304c, and 1304d, a permanent magnetic element 1310, at least one magnetic sensing element 1300, 1320, 1340, and 1360, and at least one amount of magnetic flux or magnetic flux path 1308a, and 1308b. Here, the permanent magnetic element 1310 is a permanent magnet or a Halbach-array magnet. The active magnetic regenerator (AMR) beds 1304a, 1304b, 1304c, and 1304d are disposed to the magnetic material 1306. The permanent magnetic element 1310 is coupled to the active magnetic regenerator (AMR) beds 1304a, 1304b, 1304c, and 1304d. The magnetic sensing element 1300 surrounds a first portion of the magnetic material 1306. The amount of magnetic flux or magnetic flux path 1304b is formed and passing through the permanent magnetic element 1310, the active magnetic regenerator (AMR) bed 1304a, and the first portion of the magnetic material 1306. The magnetic sensing element 1300 senses the amount of the magnetic flux or the magnetic flux path for outputting a sensing voltage and a correspondingly sensing voltage value. The other three magnetic sensing elements 1320, 1340, and 1360 are arranged in other three portions of the magnetic material 1306 for the same purpose.
The operation of the magnetic flux detection apparatus 13a is introduced as below. First, high amounts of magnetic flux flow through magneto caloric effect materials (MCEM) 1304a and magneto caloric effect materials (MCEM) 1304c and the temperature of magneto caloric effect materials (MCEM) 1304a and magneto caloric effect materials (MCEM) 1304c rise up. Then, cold water is pump through the magneto caloric effect materials (MCEM) 1304a and magneto caloric effect materials (MCEM) 1304c. Second, the permanent magnetic element 1310 is rotated in counterclockwise (CCW) direction and the magnetic pole N and the magnetic pole S of the permanent magnetic element 1310 are in the horizontal position as shown in the FIG. 13b. Now the magneto caloric effect materials (MCEM) 1304b and the magneto caloric effect materials (MCEM) 1304d are exposed to the large amounts of magnetic flux and the temperature of the magneto caloric effect materials (MCEM) 1304b and the magneto caloric effect materials (MCEM) 1304d rise up immediately. Cold water is pumped through them and tries to cool them down. The temperature of the magneto caloric effect materials (MCEM) 1304b and magneto caloric effect materials (MCEM) 1304d is cooled down when the cold water flows through them continuously. Because the temperature of the magneto caloric effect materials (MCEM) 1304b and magneto caloric effect materials (MCEM) 1304d drops, the magnetic moment of the magneto caloric effect materials (MCEM) 1304b and magneto caloric effect materials (MCEM) 1304d will increase gradually. The amounts of the magnetic flux passing through the magneto caloric effect materials (MCEM) 1304b and magneto caloric effect materials (MCEM) 1304d will increase when the magnetic moment of each of the magneto caloric effect materials (MCEM) 1304b and magneto caloric effect materials (MCEM) 1304d increases. Then, the magnetic sensing element 1300 will sense the change of the amount of the magnetic flux. When the temperature of the magneto caloric effect materials (MCEM) 1304b and magneto caloric effect materials (MCEM) 1304d come to stable, the change of the amount of the magnetic flux stops and so does the voltage change of the magnetic sensing element 1300 stop, too. By sensing the voltage change of magnetic sensing element 1300, the conventional magnetic refrigerator 1 can stop the cold water supply and save the thermal energy. It can also save the power of water pump of the conventional magnetic refrigerator 1.
FIG. 14a and FIG. 14b shows a magnetic flux detection apparatus 14a includes a magnetic material 1306, at least one active magnetic regenerator (AMR) bed 1304a, 1304b, 1304c, and 1304d, a permanent magnetic element 1410, at least one magnetic sensing element 1300, 1320, 1340, and 1360, and at least one amount of magnetic flux or magnetic flux path 1308a, and 1308b. Here, the permanent magnetic element 1400 includes a first magnet 1410, a first magnetic material 1420, an exciting coil 1430, and a second magnet 1440. The first magnetic material 1420 is disposed with the first magnet 1410. The exciting coil 1430 surrounding the first magnetic material 1420 is input with an exciting control signal. The second magnet 1440 is disposed with the first magnetic material 1420. The first magnetic material 1420 can also be a yoke. The functions and other parts of the structures besides the permanent magnetic element 1400 of the magnetic flux detection apparatus 14a are the same as described in FIG. 13a and FIG. 13b, therefore, it is omitted in this paragraph.
In summary, the magnetic sensing element such as the coil of the invention surrounds one portion of the magnetic material to sense or detect the amount of the magnetic flux or the magnetic flux path to determine the voltage generated by the magnetic flux detection apparatus so as to apply the best thermal energy-applying algorithm into the magnetic system to acquire power efficiently.
