A New Method for Determining the Curie Temperature From Magnetocaloric Measurements
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2016)
A new method is proposed for determining the Curie temperature from magnetocaloric measurements. It is based on the field dependence of the magnetic entropy change close to the Curie temperature. The main advantages over ...

Magnetocaloric effect: From materials research to refrigeration devices
(Elsevier, 2018)
The magnetocaloric effect and its most straightforward application, magnetic refrigeration, are topics of current interest due to the potential improvement of energy efficiency of cooling and temperature control systems, ...
PhD Thesis
Methods for the analysis of thermomagnetic phase transitions of magnetocaloric materials
(2019-07-12)
This thesis focuses on the analysis of the relation between thermomagnetic phase transitions and magnetocaloric response of materials. First, various experimental factors that can a ect the measurements of the magnetocaloric ...

Combined kinetic and Bean–Rodbell approach for describing field-induced transitions in LaFe11.6Si1.4 alloys
(Institute of Physics Publishing, 2021)
We propose a combination of the Kolmogorov–Johnson–Mehl–Avrami nucleation and growth theory and the Bean–Rodbell model to describe the field-induced transition in LaFe11.6Si1.4 alloys. The approach is applied to a set of ...

A procedure to obtain the parameters of Curie temperature distribution from thermomagnetic and magnetocaloric data
(Elsevier, 2019)
We propose a procedure for the determination of the parameters of the Curie temperature distribution (TCD)in a compositionally inhomogeneous ferromagnetic material. Assuming a Gaussian TCD and using a mean field approach ...

Influence of Thermal and Magnetic History on Direct DTad Measurements of Ni49+xMn36-xIn15 Heusler Alloys
(MDPI, 2019-10-25)
In the present work, using Heusler Ni49+xMn36-xIn15 (with x = 0 and 0.5) alloys, it is shown that the choice of the appropriate measurement protocol (erasing the prior state of the sample in between experiments) in DTad ...

A procedure to extract the magnetocaloric parameters of the single phases from experimental data of a multiphase system.
(AIP Publishing, 2014)
In this work, we propose a method to extract the individual parameters that describe the field dependence of magnetic entropy change of each phase in a multiphase system. This method makes use of the scaling laws of the ...

Magnetocaloric response of amorphous and nanocrystalline Cr-containing Vitroperm-type alloys
(Elsevier, 2016)
The broad compositional range in which transition metal (TM) based amorphous alloys can be obtained, yields an easily tunable magnetocaloric effect (MCE) in a wide temperature range. In some TM-based alloys, anomalous ...

Amorphization and evolution of magnetic properties during mechanical alloying of Co62Nb6Zr2B30: dependence on starting boron microstructure
(Elsevier, 2014)
Co62Nb6Zr2B30 composition was mechanically alloyed using three different types of boron powders in the starting mixture: crystalline β-B, commercial amorphous B and optimized amorphous B via ball milling. Using optimized ...

Analysis of magnetocaloric effect of ball milled amorphous alloys: Demagnetizing factor and Curie temperature distribution
(Elsevier, 2015)
The magnetocaloric effect (MCE) has been measured for an amorphous mechanically alloyed (MA) Co62Nb6Zr2B30. It is demonstrated that sample shape must be taken into account for a correct interpretation of the results, ...
