Heat transfer performance of phase change energy storage building materials and its application in energy efficient buildings

Abstract

The author proposes a phase change heat storage component combined with the light wall interior to improve the heat storage performance. Numerical modelling of the composite wall was performed using the finite element program COMSOL connected to Multiphysics simulation, and its accuracy was verified. In order to optimize the use of phase change data and the benefit of phase change temperature, the phase change of the heating device was carried out, and the difference in the development efficiency of the thermal storage performance of the two types of light walls was obtained from the ribs in the thermal phase phase exchanger compared. The results show that the long and thin fins adjust the temperature and flow field changes of the paraffin to the corresponding fin gap and improve the heat transfer rate, 44.8 and 26.3, respectively, the aerated concrete combined wall heat storage and heat release time, added short ribs known need, and the connected wall delay time is not affected by external heat. The mature thermal insulation and thermal insulation time of the polystyrene board composite wall were shortened by 20.8 and 52.9, respectively. Ribs are able to improve heating efficiency and retain heat in the broken walls of polystyrene panels. The author?s research can provide a rationale for the design and use of phase change thermal storage.
