The data in this article are the experimental results of three identical huts (Hut A, B and C), which were examined by using varying shape-stabilized PCMs (SSPCMs) sheet levels under natural and heating conditions in winter of Chiba prefecture where Japanese temperate climate. The SSPCMs sheet established the melting and solidification-temperature ranged at 19–26 °C were used. In Hut A, no SSPCM sheets were applied; in Hut B, four layers of SSPCM sheets were applied to the floor; in Hut C, one layer of SSPCM was applied to the floor, walls, and ceilings. The data provide information on the application of SSPCM sheets to improve indoor stabilization and the heating load reduction effects.

Phase change material (PCM) elements in buildings as effective thermal energy storage technologies could decrease indoor temperature swings and lower building cooling/heating loads due to their great latent heat and proper thermal conductivity. Shape-stabilized phase change materials (SSPCMs) attracted interest of many researchers due to their outstanding ability of keeping shape for long-term multiple thermal cycles with no need of encapsulation. A summarize on thermal dynamic characteristic and thermal performance of buildings integrated with SSPCMs is important for us to gain a better understand on their performance and energy saving potential in both active and passive buildings. This study has reviewed applications of SSPCMs embedded in building enclosure in recent ten years (2008-2018). Both numerical and experimental research works on integrating SSPCMs into building envelope components, such as walls, floor, roof and windows, were reviewed, respectively. A thorough conclusion about this review work and appropriate recommendations for further studies were presented at the end of the paper. This review work will help both researchers and engineers to capture up-to-date uses of SSPCMs to achieve energy efficient buildings.

“…Xia and Zhang 25 proposed a novel double-layer radiant floor system with PCM and experimentally investigated its energy storage performance and heat release characteristics. Kim et al 26 examined three identical test huts using varying SSPCM distributions under natural and heating conditions. Compared with the common hut without SSPCM, which served as the reference, hut with SSPCM could reduce the power consumption of the heater by 18.4%.…”

The floor heating system with phase change materials (PCMs) for thermal storage is an effective approach to increase the floor thermal capacity and reduce indoor temperature fluctuation range. A two-dimensional numerical model of the floor heating system combined with PCM was developed to investigate its dynamic thermal performance in winter. To verify the reliability of the model, an experimental room was established in Beijing, China. The experiment results agreed well with the modelling results, which demonstrated that the numerical model was reliable. The effects of the phase change temperature, latent heat and thermal conductivity of PCM on the thermal performance of the floor were numerically investigated. The results showed that the phase change temperature and thermal conductivity of PCM had a significant influence on thermal comfort. At the same time, these two thermal physical parameters also played a critical role in improving the utilization rate of PCM. Conversely, the latent heat, in the range of 100 to 200 kJ/kg, had no obvious influence on the thermal performance of the floor. PCM with phase change temperature of 313 K was recommended, which could increase the average indoor temperature by 2.2 K, increase the thermal energy storage ratio by 12% and reduce indoor temperature fluctuation range by 2.2 K.
