Recently we have shown that $YbInCu_4$ and related compounds present a solid state Pomeranchuk effect. These systems have a first order volume transition where a local moment phase coexists with a renormalized Fermi liquid in analogy with $^3He$ at its melting curve. We demonstrate here experimentally that the solid state Pomeranchuk effect, controlled by a magnetic field, can be used to produce cooling.
