This study provides a systematic review of the emerging twistocaloric cooling technology, which shows significant potential for the applications in high-efficiency solid-state refrigeration by driving reversible microstructural changes via twisting and untwisting. Firstly, the mechanism and mathematical models for refrigeration by the twistocaloric effect are elucidated, revealing the principles for realizing a high entropy change and thermodynamic efficiency. Subsequently, the influences of key factors, including the twist degree and rate, ambient temperature, and geometric parameters of the material, are analyzed, and a comprehensive evaluation system focused on the hysteresis effects, coefficient of performance (COP), and fatigue life is established. Based on the analyses, the research progress of materials like natural rubber, polymers, and NiTi shape memory alloys are reviewed in detail, verifying that twistocaloric cooling yields significant temperature changes while offering the integrated advantages, e.g., a high COP and low hysteresis and an excellent cyclic stability. Finally, the application potentials of twistocaloric cooling in fields such as the microelectronic cooling and green refrigeration are discussed, indicating the critical value of the "twist-instead-of-stretch" technical pathway in advancing the development of solid-state refrigeration.
