We report on the elastocaloric effect in a Cu-Zn-Al shape memory alloy. We show that both the isothermal entropy and adiabatic temperature changes are large and reproducible upon field cycling over a very broad temperature span of similar to 130 K. The combination of large entropy and such a broad temperature span results in an outstanding refrigerant capacity of similar to 2300 J/kg. (C) 2013 AIP Publishing LLC.
