  • High-performance cooling and heat pumping based on fatigue-resistant elastocaloric effect in compression [Elektronski vir]
    Ahčin, Žiga ...
    Refrigeration is vital to the modern society; however, it is one of the most polluting sectors in the world. Despite decades of development, our standard vapor-compression technology remains ... relatively inefficient and still uses harmful refrigerants. Elastocaloric cooling has shown significant potential as an environmentally benign alternative to the vapor-compression technology, but one of the biggest challenges to be solved is its limited fatigue life. Our new design of an elastocaloric regenerator made of compression-loaded Ni–Ti tubes enables buckling- and fatigue-resistant operation and record performance with commercially relevant cooling and heat-pumping characteristics. In terms of maximum specific cooling/heating performance metrics, it surpasses all previously developed caloric devices and demonstrates the enormous potential of compression-loaded elastocaloric devices for a wide range of cooling and heat-pumping applications.
