Mn-Fe-P-Ge alloys are promising, low cost, high performance candidates for magnetic cooling applications based on the magnetocaloric effect. These alloys undergo a magnetic phase transition which induces a large entropy change (ΔS). Experimental and modeling studies were conducted to study this tran...
