A Method for Thermal Dimensioning and for Energy Behavior Evaluation of a Building Envelope PCM Layer by Using the Characteristic Days
Net zero energy buildings (nZEB) require the development of innovative technologies such as the use of phase change materials (PCMs) in walls for the energy requalification of low inertia buildings. The presence of a PCM layer in the external building wall, due to the effect of storage and release o...
