In this problem, you will consider an "unusual” solid-state refrigeration device that achieves cooling by varying the magnetization of the working mate- rial (gadolinium sulphate octahydrate) at constant- pressure conditions. By contrast, most refrigeration cycles achieve cooling based on manipulating pres- sures of the working fluid. The device functions roughly as shown at the right wherein a paramag- netic wheel is rotated through different regions: i) a low-temperature region (12) ii) a low-magnetic field region (2 → 3) iii) a high-temperature region (34) iv) a high-magnetic field region (41) In the figure, the thermodynamic state at the point of entry/exit from each region is shown.

Sketch the process on the following state diagrams. For the purposes of your diagram(s), it may be
useful consider that increasing the magnetic field B at a fixed temperature would tend to increase the magnetization M, resulting in a more ordered material (i.e., lower entropy).

roughly as shown at the right wherein a paramag-

• i) a low-temperature region (1 → 2)
ii) a low-magnetic field region (2 → 3)
iii) a high-temperature region (3 → 4)
iv) a high-magnetic field region (4 → 1)
In the figure, the thermodynamic state at the point of
entry/exit from each region is shown.
