The Gd that has huge magnetothermal effect under the downfield 5Si 2-xGe 2-xZn 2xAnd Gd 5Si 2-yGe 2Zn yAlloy
Technical field
The present invention relates to have under a kind of downfield the Gd of huge magnetothermal effect 5Si 2-xGe 2-xZn 2xAlloy improves room temperature magnetic refrigerating working material Gd under the downfield 5Si 2Ge 2Alloy magnetothermal effect and Curie temperature belong to the technical field of intermetallic compound magneticsubstance.
Background technology
In daily life, traditional refrigeration modes is seen everywhere, and is penetrated into all respects in our the live and work environment, and these refrigeration modes mainly contain three kinds, 1) refrigeration of utilizing the semiconductor heat electrical effect to produce; 2) refrigeration of utilizing the high pressure gas adiabatic expansion to produce; 3) refrigeration of utilizing the material phase transformation to produce.At present; there are a lot of drawbacks in the refrigerating working material of these refrigeration modes and application thereof; low as efficient, price is expensive (semiconductor refrigerating), the noise height; and refrigerating working material is bigger or the like to the pollution of environment; the refrigeration modes that particularly utilizes the gas adiabatic expansion to produce, the extensive application of freon refrigeration working material has produced serious destruction to the ozonosphere of preserving our planet; earth room temperature effect is increasingly sharpened, become international public hazards.In order to protect existent environment of people, United Nations put into effect Montreal Agreement in 2000 [1], the production that to the effect that limits freonll-11 and the use of this agreement.In this case, traditional refrigeration industry is faced with new challenges, and the development of efficient, low energy, pollution-free green environmental-protection refrigeration technology becomes more urgent.
The magnetic Refrigeration Technique is compared with traditional Refrigeration Technique, and having does not have destruction to ozonosphere, no Greenhouse effect, noise is low, advantages such as volume is little, reliability and efficient height enjoy the concern of countries in the world scientific and technological circle, are regarded as following new generation of green environmental protection type refrigeration technology.
It is two kinds of different refrigeration mechanisms that the magnetic refrigeration is compared with the tradition refrigeration.Magnetic refrigeration is by realizing refrigeration in the excitation of magnetic refrigerating working material under adding the action of a magnetic field, the demagnetization process, and traditional gas refrigeration is by realizing refrigeration in the compression of gas working medium material under the compressor effect, the expansion process.Magnetic refrigerating externally-applied magnetic field is equivalent to the compressor in the tradition refrigeration, and because of magnetic field itself possesses magnetic energy, the consumption rate compressor of energy is little in process of refrigeration.Therefore, from the eye of development, compare with traditional Refrigeration Technique, the magnetic Refrigeration Technique has vast potential for future development.
At present, in the research of magnetic refrigerating material, with other a few class magnetic refrigeration alloy phase ratios, Gd 5Si 2Ge 2The alloy nontoxicity, transformation temperature has high magnetothermal effect under Δ H=5T magnetic field near room temperature, be considered to a kind of good magnetic refrigerating working material, so this paper selects it as matrix alloy, but also there are some problems in this alloy in the practical application of following magnetic Refrigeration Technique:
1) obtaining huge magnetothermal effect, required outer to add magnetic field too high.Therefore, its research is also only limited to the research (Δ H=5T) of magnetothermal effect under the upfield, someone studies this alloy under Δ H=2T magnetic field, but the magnetothermal effect (14J/kgK) and the Curie temperature (273K) that obtain are lower, and both improve very difficult simultaneously.So the general result that obtains is: this alloy must adopt the superconducting magnet of upfield to realize in the magnetic Refrigeration Technique in future is used, in the present Ames Lab with Gd 5Si 2Ge 2Alloy is the externally-applied magnetic field of the magnetic refrigeration model machine of working material, also is superconducting magnet.The use of superconducting magnet causes the application cost of magnetic Refrigeration Technique to increase, and has limited Gd 5Si 2Ge 2The commercial applications process of alloy in the room temperature magnetic refrigerating technology.
2) Gd 5Si 2Ge 2The Curie temperature of alloy is also lower.For example under Δ H=5T magnetic field, the maximum isothermal magnetic entropy change of alloy of ingot once obtained 18.5J/kgK and 20.0J/kgK, and its Curie temperature is 276K, and the temperature requirement that uses from room temperature has gap.
3) Gd 5Si 2Ge 2Have bigger magnetic lag during alloy generation first-order phase transition, it can influence the maximum performance of cooling cycle system and refrigeration capacity.
