This paper provides an overview of the ongoing research project "PCMs4Buildings - Systems with PCM-filled rectangular cavities for the storage of solar thermal energy for buildings". The main goal of this project is to develop a holistic approach for the experimental and numerical evaluation of the thermal behaviour of new thermal energy storage (TES) systems with rectangular cavities filled with phase change m...
This paper aims to provide a kick-off presentation of the project “PCMs4Buildings” - Systems with PCM-filled rectangular cavities for the storage of solar thermal energy for buildings. The main goal of this project is to develop a CFD methodology for the parametric analysis of the thermal behaviour of new TES systems with rectangular cavities filled with phase change materials (PCMs). These systems are designed...
