Phase change material incorporation techniques in building envelopes for enhancing the building thermal Comfort-A review

C. Suresh et al.

Summary: With the increase in urbanization and improved living standards, there is a higher demand for energy worldwide. The building sector is a major consumer of energy, accounting for about 40% of total energy consumption and causing environmental impacts. Researchers are challenged to reduce energy consumption without compromising thermal comfort in buildings. Phase change materials (PCMs) have the potential to store and release heat for energy conservation and thermal regulation. Integrating PCMs into building materials can significantly improve thermal comfort and reduce energy consumption. This study reviews the effects of PCM integration into building envelopes and discusses energy savings and economic benefits. It concludes that PCMs integrated into building envelopes such as walls, roofs, ceilings, and windows can lead to energy consumption reduction and improved thermal comfort. Micro/nano encapsulation and shape stabilization techniques show higher thermal performance compared to macro and impregnation techniques. In-situ-polymerization and emulsion polymerization are commonly used encapsulation techniques due to their efficiency and simplicity. PCMs with phase transition temperatures close to ambient conditions are found to be promising for enhancing thermal comfort in buildings.

Nano-enhanced organic form stable PCMs for medium temperature solar thermal energy harvesting: Recent progresses, challenges, and opportunities

John Paul et al.

Summary: Solar energy is a promising renewable energy source that can solve the current energy crisis. The use of Phase Change Materials (PCMs) in thermal energy storage systems is favored due to their high energy storage capacity, but their extensive usage is hindered by issues like leakage and poor thermal conductivity. However, these problems can be addressed by stabilizing the shape of PCMs with porous materials and dispersing highly conductive nanoparticles. This review article focuses on different synthesis methods for medium-temperature form stable composites and evaluates their thermal performance using mathematical evaluators. The review also summarizes the variations in thermophysical properties and the effects of porous support on supercooling, form stability, and thermal cycling. It details the potential applications of form stable composites and highlights the future directions for the development of high energy density composites.

B. Kalidasan et al.

Summary: Dispersion of conducting polymer-based nanocomposite in Phase Change Materials (PCMs) tends to enhance the thermophysical properties. This study synthesized and dispersed polyaniline@cobalt nanocomposite within the Paraffin matrix to improve thermo-physical property. The addition of 1% PC1 and PC2 to paraffin increased thermal conductivity, but it decreased when the concentration reached 5%. TGA results showed a decrease in the initial decomposition temperature for 5% PC1 and PC2, and DSC results revealed higher latent heat of fusion for 0.1% PC1 and 0.5% PC2 compared to pure Paraffin wax.
