An approach to the simulation of PCMs in building applications using TRNSYS
TL;DR: In this paper, a simple methodology for the energetic simulation of buildings including elements with phase change materials (PCMs) using the program TRNSYS is presented and validated, which does not aim a simulation of the real transfer processes inside the materials with PCM, but to evaluate the influence of walls/ceiling/floor with PCMs in the whole energy balance of a building.
