Elastocaloric heating and cooling. Another topic for @psychicwarrior.

Sparkingchip

Elastocaloric material heats up when exposed to a mechanical force field (F). When this heat is released into the environment and the force field is removed, the material supercools and extracts the same amount of heat from the environment again. The effect is reversible.

  • Sounds like it could be useful for thermal storage at least in principle - a lot depends on the energy needed to create the force, overall efficiency, size, scalability etc.
