Barocaloric effect in ferroelastic fluorides and oxyfluorides [PDF]

open access: yesFerroelectrics, 2016
Using the data about the temperature - pressure phase diagram and the phase transition entropy at ambient and high pressure, intensive and extensive barocaloric effects were analyzed in the region of single and successive order-disorder phase transitions in fluorides and oxyfluorides with the elpasolites-cryolite structure.

Giant barocaloric effects over a wide temperature range in superionic conductor AgI. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Current interest in barocaloric effects has been stimulated by the discovery that these pressure-driven thermal changes can be giant near ferroic phase transitions in materials that display magnetic or electrical order.

On the efficiency of caloric materials in direct comparison with exergetic grades of compressors

open access: yesJPhys Energy, 2023
Efficiency improvements in heat pump can drastically reduce global energy demand. Caloric heat pumps are currently being investigated as a potentially more efficient alternative to vapor compression systems.

Advanced materials for solid-state refrigeration

open access: yes, 2013
Recent progress on caloric effects are reviewed. The application of external stimuli such as magnetic field, hydrostatic pressure, uniaxial stress and electric field give rise respectively to magnetocaloric, barocaloric, elastocaloric and electrocaloric ...

Elastocaloric response of PbTiO3 predicted from a first-principles effective Hamiltonian [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A first-principles based effective Hamiltonian is used within a molecular dynamics simulation to study the elastocaloric effect in PbTiO3. It is found that the transition temperature is a linear function of uniaxial tensile stress.

Multisite Exchange-Enhanced Barocaloric Response in Mn_{3}NiN

open access: yesPhysical Review X, 2018
We study the barocaloric effect (BCE) in the geometrically frustrated antiferromagnet Mn_{3}NiN across the Néel transition temperature. Experimentally, we find a larger barocaloric entropy change by a factor of 1.6 than that recently discovered in the ...

Colossal barocaloric effects near room temperature in plastic crystals of neopentylglycol [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
AbstractThere is currently great interest in replacing the harmful volatile hydrofluorocarbon fluids used in refrigeration and air-conditioning with solid materials that display magnetocaloric, electrocaloric or mechanocaloric effects. However, the field-driven thermal changes in all of these caloric materials fall short with respect to their fluid ...
