Popis: | The magnetic refrigeration based on rotating magnetocaloric effect (MCE) is promising to build a simplified magnetic cooling system. Until now, most magnetic refrigerants for rotating MCE are single crystal and work at low temperature, which hinder the development of this refrigeration technology. In present paper, we report a large room-temperature rotating MCE in a magnetic-field-aligned NdCo4Al polycrystalline alloy. A large rotating magnetic entropy change of 1.3 J kg−1 K−1 under 10 kOe and a broad operating temperature window of 52 K are achieved. The origin of large rotating MCE in NdCo4Al polycrystalline alloy and its advantages for rotating magnetic refrigeration are discussed. |
