摘要: Solid-state cooling technologies have been considered as potential alternatives for vapor compression cooling systems. The search for refrigeration materials displaying a unique combination of pronounced caloric effect, low hysteresis, and high reversibility on phase transformation was very active in recent years. Here, we achieved increase in the elastocaloric reversibility and decrease in the friction dissipation of martensite transformations in the superelastic nano-grained NiTi alloys obtained by cold rolling and annealing treatment, with very low stress hysteresis (6.3 MPa) under a large applied strain (5%). Large adiabatic temperature changes ($\Delta T_{\rm max}=16.3$ K at $\varepsilon =5$%) and moderate COP$_{\rm mater}$ values (maximum COP$_{\rm mater}=11.8$ at $\varepsilon =2$%) were achieved. The present nano-grained NiTi alloys exhibited great potential for applications as a highly efficient elastocaloric material.
