Abstract:

ABSTRACTThe electrocaloric effect holds promise for possible application in refrigeration technologies. There is much interest in this subject and experimental studies have shown the possibility for creating materials with a modest sized electrocaloric response. However, theoretical studies lag behind the experimental effort due to the lack of computational methods to accurately study the finite temperature response. Here the freely distributed feram, an effective Hamiltonian molecular dynamics method, is demonstrated for predicting the electrocaloric response of BaTiO3.

Abstract:

The electrocaloric effect of ferroelectrics is promising for new solid-state refrigeration. However, the current research on the electrocaloric effect of bulk ferroelectrics mainly focuses on (001) orientation. Thus, we studied the electrocaloric effect of BaZr0.15Ti0.85O3 single crystals with different orientations through the nonlinear thermodynamic approach and entropy analysis. The results show that the dipolar entropy of (111)-oriented BaZr0.15Ti0.85O3 single crystals exhibits a greater change after applying an external electric field, compared with (001)- and (110)-orientations, and the (001)-oriented electrocaloric responses are consistent with experimental observations. The (111)-oriented BaZr0.15Ti0.85O3 single crystals have a more significant electrocaloric response, resulting in a broader work temperature range with a large electrocaloric effect. These insights offer an alternative way to enhance the electrocaloric response of ferroelectric single crystals.

Abstract:

Developing high-efficiency cooling with safe, low–global warming potential refrigerants is a grand challenge for tackling climate change. Caloric effect–based cooling technologies, such as magneto- or electrocaloric refrigeration, are promising but often require large applied fields for a relatively low coefficient of performance and adiabatic temperature change. We propose using the ionocaloric effect and the accompanying thermodynamic cycle as a caloric-based, all–condensed-phase cooling technology. Theoretical and experimental results show higher adiabatic temperature change and entropy change per unit mass and volume compared with other caloric effects under low applied field strengths. We demonstrated the viability of a practical system using an ionocaloric Stirling refrigeration cycle. Our experimental results show a coefficient of performance of 30% relative to Carnot and a temperature lift as high as 25°C using a voltage strength of ~0.22 volts.

Abstract:

Endowing bulk electrocaloric polymers with excellent thermal conductivity is a superior solution to the high-efficient and precise management of tremendous heat from high-power-density electronic devices. Semi-crystalline polymer P(VDF-TrFE-CFE), i.e., poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene-chlorofluoroethylene), has a predominant amorphous phase of randomly entangled chains and abundant interface, leading to localized behavior in phonon heat conduction and thereby low thermal conductivity. To enhance the thermal transport performance, electrocaloric polymer films were mechanically stretched or fabricated by electrospun to achieve highly aligned molecular chains. Chain orientation brought about a 2.4- and 1.6-times increase in the thermal diffusion coefficient of the stretched and electrospun films, respectively. Interestingly, after mechanical stretching, the thermal conductivity of the film was increased by a factor of two. In contrast, the electrospun film had a slightly lower thermal conductivity than that of the unoriented one. A remarkable discrepancy in the electrocaloric properties was observed, where the stretched polymer film reached a much higher adiabatic temperature change under an applied electric field than that of the electrospun film. Our strategy provides a perspective on designing a promising thermal management system through the integration of active refrigeration and passive heat dissipation in bulk electrocaloric polymers.

Abstract:

The electrocaloric effect of ferroelectric materials can be used for refrigeration. This new method has the advantage of high efficiency, environmental protection and lower cost. Its variable size can satisfy the cooling requirements of different devices. However, it still exist some problems of lead-free ferroelectric ceramics refrigeration: its refrigeration temperature is less than 1 K; refrigeration temperature range is narrow; working temperature is either too high or too low. Sodium bismuth titanate (Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3, NBT) material stands out and becomes the most promising candidate to replace lead-based materials. Properties of NBT almost meet the test requirements. Near depolarization temperature, this material shows ferroelectric/antiferroelectric phase transition, which brings a larger change in electric heating temperature. In this paper, electric card effect, lead-free piezoelectric ceramic materials and the BNT-xST ceramics were introduced in detail. Among these materials, BNT-xST is considered to be a promising material due to its excellent ferroelectric property and large electromechanical coupling coefficient.

Abstract:

Abstract(Ba1−xSrx)(MnyTi1−y)O3 (BSMT) ceramics with x = 35, 40 mol% and y = 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5 mol% were prepared using a conventional solid-state reaction approach. The dielectric and ferroelectric properties were characterized using impedance analysis and polarization-electric field (P–E) hysteresis loop measurements, respectively. The adiabatic temperature drop was directly measured using a thermocouple when the applied electric field was removed. The results indicate that high permittivity and low dielectric losses were obtained by doping 0.1–0.4 mol% of manganese ions in (BaSr)TiO3 (BST) specimens. A maximum electrocaloric effect (ECE) of 2.75 K in temperature change with electrocaloric strength of 0.55 K·(MV/m)−1 was directly obtained at ∼21 °C and 50 kV/cm in Ba0.6Sr0.4Mn0.001Ti0.999O3 sample, offering a promising ECE material for practical refrigeration devices working at room temperature.

Abstract:

The multicaloric effect is defined as the adiabatic reversible temperature change in multiferroic materials induced by the application of an external electric or magnetic field, and it was first theoretically proposed in 2012. The multicaloric effects in multiferroics, as well as other similar caloric effects in single ferroics, such as magnetocaloric, elastocaloric, barocaloric, and electrocaloric, have been the focus of much research due to their potential commercialization in solid-state refrigeration. In this short communication article, we examine the thermodynamics of the multicaloric effect for solid-state heating applications. A possible thermodynamic multicaloric heating cycle is proposed and then implemented to estimate the solid-state heating effect for a known electrocaloric system. This work offers a path to implementing caloric and multicaloric effects to efficient heating systems, and we offer a theoretical estimate of the upper limit of the temperature change achievable in a multicaloric cooling or heating effect.

Abstract:

Electrocaloric (EC) cooling is an emerging technology that has broad potential to disrupt conventional air conditioning and refrigeration as well as electronics cooling applications. EC coolers can be highly efficient, solid state, and compact; have few moving parts; and contain no environmentally harmful or combustible refrigerants. We report a scalable, high-performance system architecture, demonstrated in a device that uses PbSc0.5Ta0.5O3 EC multilayer ceramic capacitors fabricated in a manufacturing-compatible process. We obtained a system temperature span of 5.2°C and a maximum heat flux of 135 milliwatts per square centimeter. This measured heat flux is more than four times higher than other EC cooling demonstrations, and the temperature lift is among the highest for EC systems that use ceramic multilayer capacitors.

Abstract:

In this work, electrocaloric properties of Pb ( Mg 1/3 Zr 2x/3 Nb 2(1-x)/3) O 3-x/3 polycrystalline ceramics for different stoichiometric compositions have been investigated. The results show that largest changes (ΔT) are in range of 1.07 to 4.84 K in 10 kV cm-1 electric field change. These values are significantly large, and are comparable with values of other lead-containing ceramics under the same or larger electric field shift. The conclusion is that these materials are excellent candidates for working materials in refrigeration and liquefaction devices in a wide temperature range.

Abstract:

Electrocaloric effect is the adiabatic temperature change in a dielectric material when an electric field is applied or removed, and it can be considered as an alternative refrigeration method. Materials with ferroelectric order exhibit large temperature variations in the vicinity of a phase transition, while antiferroelectrics and relaxors may exhibit a negative electrocaloric effect. In this study, the temperature variation in polarization was investigated for epitaxial ferroelectric thin film structures based on PbZrTiO3 materials in simple or complex multilayered structures. We propose the intriguing possibility of a giant negative electrocaloric effect (ΔT = −3.7 K at room temperature and ΔT = −5.5 K at 370 K) in a simple epitaxial Pb(ZrTi)O3 capacitor. Furthermore, it was shown that abnormal temperature variation in polarization is dependent on the non-FE component introduced in a multilayered structure. No significant variation in polarization with temperature was obtained for PZT/STON multilayered structures around room temperature. However, for PZT/BST or PZT/Nb2O5 multilayers, an abnormal temperature variation in polarization was revealed, which was similar to a simple PZT layer. The giant and negative ∆T values were attributed to internal fields and defects formed due to the large depolarization fields when the high polarization of the FE component was not fully compensated either by the electrodes or by the interface with an insulator layer. The presented results make Pb(ZrTi)O3-based structures promising for cooling applications operating near room temperature.

Abstract:

Materials with large caloric effect have the promise of realizing solid-state refrigeration which has potential to be more efficient and environmentally friendly compared with current cooling technologies. Recently, the focus of caloric effects investigations has shifted towards soft materials. An overview of recent direct measurements of the large electrocaloric effect (ECE) in a composite mixture of a liquid crystal and nanoparticles (NPs) and large elastocaloric (eC) effect in main-chain liquid crystal elastomers is given. In mixtures of 12CB liquid crystal with functionalized CdSSe NPs, an ECE exceeding 5 K was found in the vicinity of the isotropic to smectic A phase transition. It is shown that the NPs smear the isotropic to smectic coexistence range in which a large ECE is observed due to latent heat enhancement. NPs acting as traps for ions reduce the moving-ion density and consequently the Joule heating. Direct eC measurements indicate that the significant eC response can be found in main-chain liquid crystalline elastomers, but at a fraction of the stress field in contrast to other eC materials. Both soft materials could play a significant role as active cooling elements or parts of thermal diodes in development of new cooling devices. This article is part of the themed issue ‘Taking the temperature of phase transitions in cool materials’.

Abstract:

The heating and cooling industry underpins everything we do, e.g., manufacturing, commercial and residential applications. Many of these applications invariably use mechanical refrigeration technologies, consequently contributing significantly to the environmental impacts of the refrigeration, air conditioning, and heat pump (RACHP) industry both through direct and indirect emissions of CO2. To reduce these emissions, research and development worldwide aim to improve the performance of conventional systems and the development of new refrigeration technologies of potentially much lower environmental impacts. As we transition to a low carbon economy, there are sizable environmental and economic benefits from developing and using efficient, innovative, low carbon heating and cooling technologies that reduce energy use and carbon emissions. This paper provides an up-to-date and comprehensive critical review and evaluation of recent advances in emerging alternative heating and cooling technologies that have the potential to reduce the environmental impacts of refrigeration in the RACHP sector. The paper highlights the basic working principle of operation, its main applications, the challenges and opportunities in penetrating the market. The paper also highlights further research and development needed to accelerate the development and adoption of these alternative refrigeration technologies by the sector. Most of the technologies reviewed have a Technology Readiness Level (TRL) of 3–4, except electrocaloric technology which is less ready compared to its counterparts with a TRL of 1–2 at this stage. Furthermore, most technologies have capacities ranging between a few kilowatts to a maximum of 7 kW with a coefficient of performance COP between 1 and 10 reported in the literature.

Abstract:

Abstract Electrocaloric (EC) cooling technology is known for its efficiency and simplicity of the electricity-driving method. However, there still are many challenges and problems, i.e., the poor heat transfer of EC materials (polymers), and the limited electrocaloric temperature change, which result in the limited cooling efficiency and/or cooling power of the EC cooling prototypes. The lack of EC device with high cooling performance poses challenging obstacles for the industrial deployment of the EC cooling technology. In this work, we demonstrated that the fabrication of P(VDF-TrFE-CFE) nanocomposites with BaZr0.2Ti0.8O3 (BZT) particles is an efficient way to improve the heat transfer of EC materials without compromising EC capability. In order to valid the positive effect of developing the EC device rather than provide a pure material study, we developed a solid-fluid coupling EC cooling machine numerically. The introduction of BZT composites allows EC refrigeration devices to exhibit a good COP while maintaining a relatively high total cooling power (>150 W) when the temperature span is 10 K. Therefore, the composites exhibit great potential of ECE for future cooling applications.

Abstract:

Dielectric capacitors are widely used in pulse power systems, electric vehicles, aerospace, and defense technology as they are crucial for electronic components. Compact, lightweight, and diversified designs of electronic components are prerequisites for dielectric capacitors. Additionally, wide temperature stability and high energy storage density are equally important for dielectric materials. Ferroelectric materials, as special (spontaneously polarized) dielectric materials, show great potential in the field of pulse power capacitors having high dielectric breakdown strength, high polarization, low-temperature dependence and high energy storage density. The first part of this review briefly introduces dielectric materials and their energy storage performance. The second part elaborates performance characteristics of various ferroelectric materials in energy storage and refrigeration based on electrocaloric effect and briefly shed light on advantages and disadvantages of various common ferroelectric materials. Especially, we summarize the polarization effects of underlying substrates (such as GaN and Si) on the performance characteristics of ferroelectric materials. Finally, the review will be concluded with an outlook, discussing current challenges in the field of dielectric materials and prospective opportunities to assess their future progress.

Abstract:

In the present work, the electrocaloric (EC) effect in lead-free Sr and Sn doped (Ba0.85Ca0.075Sr0.075)(Zr0.1Ti0.88Sn0.02)O3 ceramic prepared by solid-state method has been investigated. The phase purity and pure perovskite phase formation with Sr and Sn doping is confirmed by X-ray diffraction. The adiabatic temperature change ΔT (due to the EC effect), entropy change (ΔS) and refrigeration capacity (RC) are estimated under various electric fields. The maximum peak values of ΔT, ΔS and RC are found as 1.5 K, 1.8 J/kg.K and 2.75 J/kg, respectively under the applied electric field of 33 kV/cm at 305 K. It is also observed that the ΔT, ΔS and RC decreases with an increase in applied temperature. Moreover, the estimated values of EC properties are significantly high which indicates that fabrication of Sr and Sn doped lead-free ceramics can be advantageous for EC applications.

Abstract:

We present the results of studies of thermal expansion, heat capacity, permittivity, polarization and the influence of different thermal conditions on the intensive electrocaloric effect (ECE), [Formula: see text], in a commercial multilayer capacitor based on doped BaTiO3. Investigations in a wide temperature range revealed one anomaly in the behavior of the physical properties at about 290[Formula: see text]K characteristic for the relaxors. Direct measurements showed a high reversibility of ECE under equilibrium thermal conditions. Good agreement was found between the values of [Formula: see text] determined by direct and indirect measurements at the electric field up to 15.4[Formula: see text]kV/cm. Quasi-isothermal conditions lead, firstly, to decrease of large [Formula: see text]0.94[Formula: see text]K obtained in adiabatic conditions under [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]kV/cm to 0.87[Formula: see text]K, and, secondly, the appearance of a difference between the values of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] determined when the electric field is applied and removed. Using this phenomenon and changing the frequency of the periodic electric field, [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]kV/cm, the effect of cooling was obtained equal to [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]K. The results obtained are useful for further development of the electrocaloric refrigeration technique without thermal switches.

Abstract:

After almost 20 years of intensive research on magnetocaloric effects near room temperature, magnetic refrigeration with first-order magnetocaloric materials has come close to real-life applications. Many materials have been discussed as potential candidates to be used in multicaloric devices. However, phase transitions in ferroic materials are often hysteretic and a metric is needed to estimate the detrimental effects of this hysteresis. We propose the coefficient of refrigerant performance, which compares the net work in a reversible cycle with the positive work on the refrigerant, as a universal metric for ferroic materials. Here, we concentrate on examples from magnetocaloric materials and only consider one barocaloric experiment. This is mainly due to lack of data on electrocaloric materials. It appears that adjusting the field-induced transitions and the hysteresis effects can minimize the losses in first-order materials. This article is part of the themed issue ‘Taking the temperature of phase transitions in cool materials’.

Abstract:

The characteristic transition from ferroelectric (FE) to ergodic relaxor (ER) state in (Bi0.5Na0.5)TiO3 (BNT) based lead-free ceramics provides an efficient approach to bring a highly ordered phase back to a disordered one. It would be rational to utilize this transition to improve relevant non-piezoelectric properties based on domain decomposition. In this work, different La contents were introduced to 0.93(Bi0.5Na0.5)TiO3-0.07Ba(Ti0.945Zr0.055)O3 ceramics (BNT-BZT-xLa) to induce evolution of ergodic degree. The results reveal that with increasing La content, both the FE-ER transition temperature TF-R and depolarization temperature Td shift towards room temperature, implying a deepened ergodic degree. By modulation of ergodic degree, thermally stimulated depolarization current experiment shows a higher current density peak, and corresponding pyroelectric coefficient increases from 2.46 to 2.81 μC/(cm2∙°C) at Td. For refrigeration, the indirect measurement demonstrates the ΔT maximum increases from 1.1 K to 1.4 K, indicating an enhanced electrocaloric effect. Moreover, the optimized energy storage effect is observed after La doping. With appearance of “slimmer” P-E loops, both calculated recoverable energy storage density Wrec and storage efficiency η increase to 0.23 J/cm3 and 22.8%, respectively. These results denote La doping conduces to the improvement of non-piezoelectric properties of BNT-based ceramics in a certain range. Therefore, La doping should be an adopted modification strategy for lead-free ceramics used in areas like refrigerator and pulse capacitors.
