Adiabatic magnetocaloric temperature change in polycrystalline gadolinium – A new approach highlighting reversibility
The adiabatic temperature change (ΔT) during the magnetization and demagnetization processes of bulk gadolinium is directly measured for several applied magnetic fields in the temperature range 285 K to 305 K. During the magnetization process, ΔT measurements display the same maximum for each applie...
