Phase change materials (PCMs) are materials that store thermal energy and undergo phase transitions when they are heated and cooled, making them effective alternatives to fossil fuels for building insulation. To determine the energy performance of PCMs in infrastructure it is important to understand their thermal characteristics. The transient plane heat source (TPS) method was used to determine the thermal conductivity of the PCMs ClemSel 21 and ClemSel 24. The thermal conductivities ...
