摘　　要：Solid refrigeration technology based on the elastocaloric effect has a great potential alternative to the conventional vapor compression cooling. Here we report the large elastocaloric effect in Ti-Ni （50 at%） shape memory alloy below its austenite finish temperature Af under different strain. Both Maxwell＇s and Clausius-Clapeyron equations are used to estimate the entropy change. The strain-induced entropy change increases with raising the strain and gets a maximum value at a few kelvins below Af. The maximum entropy changes ASrnax are -20.44 and -53.70 J/kg.K, respectively for 1% and 2% strain changes. Large entropy change may be obtained down to 20 K below Af. The temperature of the maximum entropy change remains unchanged before the plastic deformation appears but moves towards low temperature when the plastic deformation happens.Solid refrigeration technology based on the elastocaloric effect has a great potential alternative to the conventional vapor compression cooling.
