A Study of Temperature-Dependent Hysteresis Curves for a Magnetocaloric Composite Based on La(Fe, Mn, Si)13-H Type Alloys

In the present paper, the effect of temperature on the shape of magnetic hysteresis loops for a magnetocaloric composite core was studied. The composite core, based on La(Fe, Mn, Si)13-H, was set up using three component disks with different Curie temperatures. The magnetic properties of the components and the outcome composite core were determined using a self-developed measurement setup. For the description of hysteresis loops, the...
