An experimental and numerical simulation study of an active solar wall enhanced with phase change materials

Show other versions (1)

Solar walls can be used to increase the overall energy efficiency of a building. Phase Change Materials (PCM) are capable of increasing the effective thermal mass of building elements, thus decreasing the overall energy consumption. Recently, the incorporation of PCM in a solar wall has been propo...
