Abstract

Calculations of the magnetocaloric effect for La1−x Cd x MnO3 (LSCM) upon 0.05 T magnetic field variation have been carried out. It is found that magnetic entropy change distribution of the LSCM is much more uniform than that of gadolinium. This feature is desirable for an Ericson-cycle magnetic refrigerator. Furthermore, at different concentrations of Cd, the temperature range between 150 K and room temperature can be covered using the La1−x Cd x MnO3 system. Therefore, the LSCM system is beneficial for manipulating magnetocaloric refrigeration that occurs in various temperatures.
