Abstract
Heat storage application techniques can be categorized into the sensible heat storage and the latent heat storage according to the method of heat storage. Heat storage is the way of saving remaining heat when heating and cooling loads are light, and then using it when the heating and cooling loads are heavy. Latent heat storage is defined as the method of saving heat by using substances which have high potential heat when phase change is in the range of a certain temperature and when heat storage space is small, compared to those of sensible heat storage and it is possible that absorption and emission of heat at a certain temperature. This study is conducted to save energy when either air-conditioning or heating is operated in a building. We have tried to find out the essential properties of matter and the optimum mixing rate about cement and gypsum for building materials, which have been widely used for proper phase change materials (PCM), when thermal environment property is applied. So we obtained the result of the cooling delay effect about 19% with heat storage mortar containing 3 wt% of PCM.
