Abstract

A method for calculating the multicaloric effect in magnetostrictive-ferroelectric layered structures is considered. The multicaloric effect is a superposition of magnetocaloric, electrocaloric and elastocaloric ones. As an example of magnetostrictive-ferroelectric layered structures, the layered structure of lead zirconate titanate and cobalt ferrite provides the possibility of increasing the caloric effects. The application of external magnetic and electric fields to the magnetostriction-ferroelectric structure leads to the inducing the elastocaloric effect and thus to the increased multicaloric effect.
