Problems solved by technology

However, due to different material systems, the required working systems such as external magnetic field and heat transfer medium are generally different. For multiple different material systems, multiple working systems are required, which will cause the entire refrigeration system to be huge and complicated, and difficult to operate.
These existing problems prevent the existing magnetic refrigeration materials from becoming ideal and practical working fluids for magnetic refrigeration technology.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a magnetic refrigeration material, in particular to a magnetic alloy which can be used as a magnetic refrigeration material. Background technique [0002] Common magnetic refrigeration materials have one crystal structure (hereinafter referred to as high-temperature phase) at relatively high temperatures, and spontaneously change into another crystal structure (hereinafter referred to as low-temperature phase) at relatively low temperatures. When cooling from a higher temperature to a lower temperature, the material transitions from a high-temperature phase to a low-temperature phase. Conversely, by heating the material from a relatively low temperature, the material undergoes a phase transition from a low-temperature phase to a high-temperature phase. This opposite phase transition is called an inverse phase transition of the crystal structure. [0003] Generally, materials with such a phase transition will undergo a phase tr...
