N2 - Based on a multi-stage regenerator design of magnetic refrigeration hydrogen liquefaction device, a two-dimensional transient numerical magnetic refrigeration model in the temperature range of liquid hydrogen was constructed. Some various factors on the cooling performance of the high temperature active magnetic regenerator (60 K - 80 K) were focused on, including operating frequency, fluid flow time ratio and filling mass of the magnetocaloric material. The simulation results showed that, as the operating frequency increases from 0.25 Hz to 4.00 Hz, the active magnetic regenerator can obtain is larger cooling power. Especially, under the condition of higher frequency and lower utilization factor, the larger cooling power and COP could be obtained. For fluid flow time ratio, the cooling power and efficiency increases with the increase of fluid flow time ratio from 40% to 80%. There is an increasing trend of corresponding utilization factor of the maximum cooling power, as the fluid flow time ratio increase. For the filling mass, the maximum cooling power has a linear relationship with the filling mass of the magnetocaloric material.
