Zusammenfassung:A temperature control unit includes a ring-shaped magnetocaloric material temperature control body (28) over which heat transfer medium can flow, a rotatable temperature control body receiving housing (12), a temperature control body receiving space, temperature control sectors (I, II, III, IV) following each other in a circumferential direction, each with a cooling area (30) and a magnetic field heating area arranged next to the cooling area, in at least two adjacent temperature control sectors, a heat transfer medium circulation (40) from the magnetic field heating area of one sector to the cooling area of another sector and from the cooling area of the other sector to the magnetic field heating area of the one sector. In one sector, heat input fluid may flow through the cooling area-feeding heat into the sector or/and in one sector, heat discharge fluid may flow through the magnetic field heating area for discharging heat.
