LATENT HEAT STORAGE IN PASSIVE COOLING OF A WOOD FRAME HOUSE
Original language description
Passive cooling of buildings is one of the energy-saving measures that can be employed in climates with predominantly sensible cooling loads. There are several passive cooling techniques that can be used in buildings; among them night-time ventilation. Night-time ventilation cooling utilizes diurnal swing of outdoor temperature and it has been used in many buildings. However, this passive cooling technique only works well when a building has a sufficient thermal mass. In case of heavy-weight building structures (brick, stone, concrete etc.) building structures themselves form a thermal storage mass. On the other hand, a purpose-provided thermal storage capacity may need to be added to light-weight building structures in order to make night-time ventilation cooling work effectively. Phase change materials seem to be a very promising medium for thermal storage in many applications including passive cooling of buildings. The advantage of phase change materials (PCMs) in comparison with se
