In order to reuse an exhaust heat from a low temperature heat source, we propose the exhaust heat recovery device which works based on the magnetocaloric effect of a magnetic material. In this paper, the characteristic of the device is studied computationally. The device is constituted of the magnetic material and a magnetic circuit. A numerical simulation is conducted under the parameter such as the temperature of energy source. As a result of the evaluation, it is found that the characteristic of the device is affected by the magnetic flux density and temperature of energy sources.
