“…Results have underlined a significant energy saving in buildings integrated with PCMs [31]. PCM integration in buildings was also modelled and simulated in terms of energy demands, by Yun et al [32]. Results have indicated a reduction in cooling cost by 7.48%, while a six years' payback period was estimated.…”

“…Detailed HVAC system simulations are carried out to assess the effect of high efficiency heat pumps with inverterdriven compressors and advanced control on the building's energy performance. They can be based on software with standard modules, like the DOE-2 [36], or EnergyPlus [37], or on transient simulations [38][39][40][41]. As demonstrated in [42,43], detailed HVAC system simulations enable realistic prediction of a house's heating and cooling energy consumption by use of efficient heat pumps.…”

“…Ceiling height is 3 m. The house is located in Volos, a coastal port city in Greece, with latitude 39 • :21 , longitude 22 • :56 . The climate of the site is warm and temperate, with average monthly temperatures ranging between 8-10 • C during winter and 25-28 • C summer and about 500 mm annual precipitation [37]. It is a single-family, detached house with a level roof with 2 m overhangs at the northern and southern sides.…”

“…The advantages of adopting techniques such as these presented earlier are influential with regards to actively reducing energy consumption, despite the variation in estimating the degree of possible energy savings ranging from 20% to 50.8%. [51][52][53][54][55][56][57][58]. Despite the aforementioned promising attributes in the literature presented above, critically examining the methods used to utilize PCMs, it can be seen that techniques that are of high complexity are required, such as micro-encapsulation for instance.…”
