Magnetic refrigeration technology (MRT) is an affordable and efficient refrigeration system that can conveniently replace the present conventional gas compression and expansion (GCE) system of refrigeration. Apart from the fact that GCE refrigeration system has reached its thermodynamic limit and releases ozone depleting gases that is harmful to the environment, its non-compactness and lower energy efficiency are of serious concerns that remain unaddressed. Utilization of solid magnetic refrigerant in MRT aids its compactness and enhances environmental friendliness system of refrigeration. Manganite refrigerants have recently attracted attention from experimental and modeling perspectives due to its stability, cost-effectiveness as well as tunable magnetic properties as compared to the existing metal gadolinium refrigerant. However, magnetic ordering temperature of manganite refrigerants plays a …
