Part time 75% In Germany, cooling comprises around 20% of total electricity consumption. A promising alternative to conventional cooling methods is elastocaloric cooling, which utilizes stress-induced temperature changes in superelastic shape memory alloys (SMAs). Unlike traditional systems, elastocaloric cooling avoids the environmental risks associated with refrigerant leakage, as it relies on solid-state materials. Moreover, it....
