The fridge is the most common of common household appliances. Despite improvements in efficiency over the years, they remain one of the biggest users of electricity in the home, relying on chemical ...

Materials that change temperature in magnetic fields could lead to new refrigeration technologies that reduce the use of greenhouse gases, according to new research. Materials that change temperature ...

The way a refrigerator keeps Chobanis chilly today isn’t all that different from how Jell-O trays were cooled and set in the 1950s. Fridges have been built using the the same basic physics for about ...

Scientists have shown that the smallest structural change in the iron-rhodium alloys may result in a significant change in its magnetocaloric properties. The magnetocaloric effect (MCE) is manifested ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Certain magnetic materials change their temperature when an external magnetic field is applied to them. This magnetocaloric effect (MCE) could become the heart of future cooling ...

Materials that change temperature in magnetic fields could lead to new refrigeration technologies that reduce the use of greenhouse gases, thanks to new research at the U.S. Department of Energy's ...
