In this paper, the heat transfer in a concrete roof with an intermediate layer of PCM was
studied numerically. Three positions and three thicknesses of the PCM layer and two values …

The inadequate use of passive thermal conditioning alternatives, such as phase change
materials (PCM), in Chile, despite the climatological advantages in various regions of the …

The thermal performance of a concrete roof with a phase change material (PCM) layer on its
interior surface under a Mexican warm weather (Merida) is presented. We analyzed a roof …

Strategies to reduce energy consumption are presently experiencing vigorous development.
Phase change materials (PCMs) are novel materials that can reduce indoor temperatures …

Latent heat storage in phase change material (PCM) is an efficient technology that can be
applied in building envelopes. Installing PCM in building roof has been effective in altering …

The use of phase change materials in building envelopes has attracted the attention of
researchers to minimize cooling and heating loads and for thermal comfort regulation. A …

Mankind has often taken inspiration from the nature to solve problems since nature has
sophisticated processes, refined for thousands of years. While manmade systems are …

Thermal-performance assessment of a concrete roof with double macroencapsulated phase-
change material (PCM) layers on the interior concrete surface in a semi-arid weather is …

Buildings are considered to be one of the considerable energy consuming systems and
greenhouse gas emissions sources, and 14% of this energy is used for cooling. This paper …
