Description
Summary:In order to study the feasibility that PCM wallboard use in the building of Southwest China, based on the enthalpy model of the PCM wallboard, with a analysis of the factors effecting the heat transfer performance of PCM, taking Chongqing as an example to choose one suitable type of PCM wallboard for Southwest China, simulating the heat transfer performance of a PCM wallboard room and a common room in Chongqing, testing the indoor air temperatures of the PCM room and a common room in summer and winter for validating the simulation through field experiments and counting with a peak load shifting economy policy the analysis shows that such a PCM room is not only energy efficient, thermal comfort, and it also has a short investment period (only 12.4 months).
