Microstructural investigations of rare-earth transition-metal-based magnetocaloric materials for near-room-temperature applications
Magnetocaloric materials are promising materials for magnetic refrigerators which would substitute present compressor refrigerators. They work on the principle of the magnetocaloric effect (MCE), where the magnetocaloric material increases its temperature when exposed to an external magnetic field. These new type of refrigerators are energetically more efficient and environmentally friendly. …
