Effect of Macrocapsule Geometry on PCM Performance for Thermal Regulation in Buildings

Effect of Macrocapsule Geometry on PCM Performance for Thermal Regulation in Buildings

The integration of phase-change materials (PCMs) into thermal energy storage systems offers significant potential for reducing energy consumption and improving thermal comfort, crucial issues for achieving sustainable building stocks. Nevertheless, the performance of PCM-based systems is strongly in...
