Abstract Solid-state cooling/heating technology based on the elastocaloric effect is one of promising alternatives to vapor compression systems. Large temperature modulation often generated through non-linear strain-induced structural transition by applying large strain and/or stress ferroelastic materials. Recently, an unconventional approach expand application possibilities was demonstrated p...

In the framework of theory diffuse martensitic transitions to be based on thermodynamic and kinetic relationships mechanism magnetocaloric (MC) effect in shape memory ferromagnetic alloy crystals is theoretically analysed. The adequately describes magnetostructural transformations MC these at adiabatically applying them eliminating from magnetic field. analysis also includes magneto-anisotropic...
