Hello all,
I am currently investigating for the first time, the Magneto Calorific effect of my complex.
I already measured magnetisation vs Field at different temperature and have the data at hand. However, I am not wonderful with calculus especially when it comes to integrating a function of functions in partial derivative modes.
I know the magnetic entropy can be calculated from maxwell's equation as given below,
-(change in entropy)= mu *integral of {(partial derivative of M)/(partial derivative of T)}dH @ constant field. (see attached)
My problem is how to use excel of any other spread sheet to evaluate this definite integral (from 0 Tesla to 5 tesla). I have the various magnetisation data at different field and temperature.
Can anyone help me on how to handle this data set? Thank you in advance.
