Modeling hysteresis curves of La(FeCoSi)13 compound near the transition point with the GRUCAD model

Abstract

The paper presents a new approach to modeling of magnetic properties and the influence of temperature on hysteresis loops in La(FeCoSi)13 magnetocaloric compound. The GRUCAD hysteresis model has been used for analysis of magnetic behavior in the vicinity of the magnetic phase transition. The modeling results are in a qualitative agreement with experiment.
