Abstract

Abstract In this paper we theoretically discuss the effect of anisotropy on the magnetocaloric properties of NdAl 2 single crystal. To this end, we use a model Hamiltonian of interacting magnetic moments under the influence of the crystal electric field. The magnetocaloric quantity, Δ S iso , calculated for 7 T magnetic field variation is in a reasonable agreement with the available experimental data. Moreover, we predict the existence of anomalies in the magnetocaloric effect when the magnetic field of constant intensity rotates from 〈 100 〉 to 〈 110 〉 direction.
