Review highlights how 3D-printed NiTi alloys improve elastocaloric cooling, suggesting sustainable refrigeration solutions.
Elastocaloric Cooling Additive manufacturing enables precise control over the architecture, composition, and microstructure of NiTi shape memory alloys, unlocking enhanced elastocaloric performance for solid-state cooling. This work highlights how advanced 3D-printed designs improve heat transfer, cyclic stability, and efficiency, offering a scalable pathway toward sustainable, high-performance refrigeration technologies beyond conventional vapor-compression systems.
