The main objective of my thesis is the design and development of a device suitable to recover, and scavenge, low grade heat to produce electrical energy and thus supply small autonomous systems (μW to mW). The developed generator converts energy in three steps. First of all, thermal energy is converted into magnetic energy through a thermodynamic cycle operated by a magnetocaloric material. This first conversion is closely linked to the second, conversion of magnetic energy into mechanical energy, because the displacement of the magnetocaloric material also controls the applied field and the heat exchanges with the reservoirs. It is the interweaving of these two cycles, thermodynamic and dynamic, which allows the system to self-oscillate. T...
