Building Energy Management Using Increased Thermal Capacitance and Thermal Storage Management

Building Energy Management Using Increased Thermal Capacitance and Thermal Storage Management

This study simulates an increased thermal capacitance (ITC) and thermal storage management (TSM) system to reduce the energy consumed by air conditioning and heating systems. The ITC/TSM is coupled with phase change materials (PCM), which enable tank volume reduction. The transient energy modeling s...
