DEVELOPMENT OF THERMALLY ADAPTIVE ECC FOR PASSIVE BUILDING ENVELOPE HEAT STORAGE


Abstract eng:
To provide passive heat storage in buildings, materials exhibiting a phase-change within building operating temperature can be incorporated into the envelope material. This study assesses the viability of incorporating a paraffin phase change material (PCM) into an Engineered Cementitious Composite (ECC). ECC allows formation of thin panels—a favorable geometry for building façades. Inclusion of 3% PCM by mass provided a 40% increase in ECC heat capacity at phase change temperature while maintaining a 28 MPa compressive strength, and 4% tensile strain capacity on average.
