Welcome to the Institute of Refrigeration website

Magnetic Refrigeration at Oxford

SIRAC is a new Government-funded organisation which aims to accelerate the exploitation of new ideas for technology and products that have an environmental benefit.  The network, supported by the Institute of Refrigeration, links up researchers in Universities and colleges with companies seeking solutions to technical problems, in order to smooth the transfer of knowledge and ideas to the marketplace.  

Prof Graeme Maidment of London South Bank University, which is supporting the scheme, said: "The network got off to a flying start with the well-attended launch event earlier this year. Now the Oxford University conference on 21st May offers people from industry the chance to see first hand the fantastic innovations going on in magnetic cooling and compressor developments – that open the way to new approaches in the future."

SIRAC has launched a web site at www.sirac.org.uk to promote its aims and one of the key tasks is to gather together information on all relevant research projects underway in the UK. Researchers are able to add their projects to the SIRAC database, via the website.

Places at the meeting are limited, for more details and to book for this free event at Oxford see: www.sirac.org.uk
