Effects of Strain Rate and Measuring Temperature on the Elastocaloric Cooling in a Columnar-Grained Cu71Al17.5Mn11.5 Shape Memory Alloy

Solid-state refrigeration technology based on elastocaloric effects (eCEs) is attracting more and more attention from scientists and engineers. The response speed of the elastocaloric materials, which relates to the sensitivity to the strain rate and measuring temperature, is a significant parameter...
