Optimal positioning of phase change material and insulation through numerical investigations to reduce cooling loads in office buildings

Water-resistant gum-based phase change composite for thermo-regulating insulation packaging

“…Phase change materials (PCMs), also known as latent heat storage materials, can absorb and release a considerable amount of energy as latent heat of phase change by changing from solid to liquid phase and vice versa within a narrow temperature range [5,6]. PCMs can be incorporated with an insulation module to develop a passive temperature control performance package.…”
