Abstract
AbstractTwo theoretical Monte Carlo models have been presented for description of the positive and negative magnetocaloric effects of Heusler Ni-Mn-X (X = Ga, In) alloys undergoing first order coupled magnetostructural phase transition. For both models all quantities such as temperature dependence of the magnetic contribution to the total specific heat, magnetization and isothermal magnetic entropy change are in qualitative agreement with the available experimental data.
