Recent developments on Heusler alloys including Ni–Mn–X and Ni–Co–Mn–X (X = Ga, In, Sn,…) demonstrate multiferroic phase transformations with large abrupt changes in lattice parameters of several percent corresponding ferromagnetic ordering near the transition temperatures. These materials enable a new generation thermomagnetic generators that convert heat to electricity within small temperature difference below 5 K. While thermodynamic calculations this energy conversion method predict...
