Abstract

Construction of buildings is done with the express objective of providing a comfortable living environment for their residents. The demand for electrical energy changes dramatically throughout the day and night, depending on industrial, commercial, and residential activity. PCMs (Phase change Materials) were considered as a feasible method for lowering building energy usage. These are materials that can store a significant quantity of energy in the form of thermal energy at a steady temperature with no temperature swings. Large mats in buildings will respond slowly to variations in air-conditioning needs. The goal of this study is to look at the application of PCM in various fields as well as in building construction and how the temperature changes during the day at three distinct layers of the model walls. Temperature fluctuations are investigated at different timeframe from April to 30 May in orientation 1 and are taken by rotating the model by 1800 from June to July in orientation 2.
