We present a mean-field study on the magnetocaloric effect (MCE) in RFe10X2, where X=Mo, V, and R=Gd, Tb, Ho, Tm, Dy, Er, Nd for X=V. For X=Mo, R=Dy, Gd, and Nd. The two-sublattice model, involving the 4f (rare earth) and 3d(Fe) sublattices, is used. For both systems, magnetization, magnetic heat capacity, magnetic entropy and isothermal entropy change ∆Sm are calculated for different magnetic fields in the 0-5T range and the temperature range from 0 to 700K. Direct and inverse MCEs are shown to take place in these ferromagnetic/ferrimagnetic compounds. For a field change ∆H=5T, the maximum isothermal magnetic entropy change has been calculated for ferromagnetic NdFe10Mo2 compound to be 6.6 J/K mol at Tc=441 K. Both direct, and inverse MCEs have been found in ferrimagnetic compounds, e.g., for TmFe10V2, with maximum -∆Sm= J/K mol at Tc=521K and ∆Sm=  J/K mol at TN=127 K. Mean-field analysis is suitable for handling the systems we report on. Further study on the lattice and electronic contribution to entropy is planned.

AbstractSome compositions of Ni-Mn-X (X = Ga, In, Sn) ferromagnetic shape memory alloys exhibit a first order magnetostructural phase transition. Magnetic entropy change ΔSm in the vicinity of this transition has been studied by magnetization and heat capacity measurements. Comparison of these results point to a large difference in magnitudes of ΔSm obtained from magnetization and heat capacity data. It is suggested that this discrepancy originates from overestimation of \Delta S_m determined from the magnetization measurements and underestimation of ΔSm obtained from the heat capacity measurements.

The enhanced low-field magnetocaloric effect was investigated for double perovskite Sr2FeMoO6 - silver (SFMO/Ag) composites with 0, 5 and 10 wt.% of Ag. A phenomenological model was used to predict magnetocaloric properties of SFMO/Ag composites, such as magnetic entropy change, heat capacity change and relative cooling power. It was shown that magnetic entropy change (?S M) peaks of SFMO/Ag span over a wide temperature region, which can significantly improve the global efficiency of the magnetic refrigeration. Furthermore, the ?S M distribution of the SFMO/Ag composites is much more uniform than that of gadolinium. Through these results, SFMO/Ag composite has some potential application for magnetic refrigerants in an extended high-temperature range.
