The study of magnetocaloriceffect has been performed on polycrystalline Ho5Pd2 compound, which undergoes magnetic field-induced first order metamagnetic transition from antiferromagnetic to ferromagnetic state below antiferromagnetic transition temperature. A large magnetic entropy change associated with the field-induced metamagnetic transition has been observed over a wide temperature range. The
