Abstract:
In order to improve the thermal performance of Trombe wall and make its active in a whole year, this paper proposed a novel Trombe wall integrated with double layers phase change material (PCM) named PCM Trombe wall. This paper studied the thermal performance of PCM Trombe wall numerically in winter and summer in Wuhan. The results showed that the PCM Trombe wall can improve indoor overheating in summer, and reduce indoor temperature fluctuations in winter. Therefore, the PCM Trombe wall can improve indoor thermal comfort and reduce cooling/heating load in the whole year compared with the traditional Trombe wall.
