LaFeCoSi alloys have attracted much attention as they exhibit magnetocaloric effect in near room temperature. The paper focuses on the description of anhysteretic curve for LaFeCoSi alloy for temperatures close to transition point. For this purpose the Langevin function is applied. The paper confirms that the Langevin function might be a good starting point for development of analytical models aimed at examination of magnetic properties in La-based magnetocaloric materials.
