An Experimental Study on the Thermal Performance of Phase-Change Material and Wood-Plastic Composites for Building Roofs
We assessed the usefulness of phase-change material (PCM)-based thermal plates fabricated from wood-plastic composites (WPCs) in mitigating the urban heat island effect. The thermal performance of plates containing PCMs with two different melting temperatures and with two different albedo levels was...
