Abstract

We show a systematic study of the magneto-caloric response carried out on a series of FeZrB(Cu) amorphous ribbons with different Curie temperature values in the 210–320 K interval. The main aim of the work is to investigate the conditions to obtain, from the isothermal magnetic entropy change vs. temperature curves, ΔSM(T), a table-like behavior of the entropy using two-ribbon composites. Even though the maximum value of ΔSM for the composite is lower than those of the single components, the existence of a table-like behavior maximizes the effective refrigerant capacity, reaching values around 80 J/kg for an applied magnetic field change of 2 T. Furthermore, we discuss how the temperature range for such a table-like behavior can be tuned and the refrigerant capacity enhanced in terms of energy efficiency.
