Phase change materials (PCM) have received considerable attention over the last decade
for use in latent heat thermal storage (LHTS) systems. PCMs give the ability to store passive …

Glazing units are important for providing passive solar gain and air ventilation in buildings,
but their thermal performance is very poor compared to other building components, which …

Energy crisis and environmental problems motive a variety of research strategies to increase
energy efficiency, decrease stress on energy infrastructure, and consequently reduce CO 2 …

The window of a building is a pivotal constituent as it conserves the connection between the
building's interior and exterior. High transmission is one of the foremost benchmarks for a …

Building energy reduction requires highly advanced low heat loss, heat gain and
comfortable daylight allowing glazing. Presently available glazing systems are classified …

The present work numerically investigated the energy performance of ten different glazing
configurations in the severe cold climate of China. Furthermore, the thermal behavior of the …

Glazed roofs are increasingly used in modern buildings. Integrating multiple-glazing
envelope with PCM as a passive solar utilization system can reduce energy consumption of …

Responding to the appeal of realizing carbon neutrality in response to the field of buildings,
minimizing the energy demand and improving the energy management of the buildings by …

This paper investigates the thermal performance of glass window composed of glass, silica
aerogel and phase change material (PCM), which concurrently provides storage and …

Latent energy storage with PCMs integrated buildings application is facing an increasing
interest. The charging and discharging processes during phase change and heat transfer …
