Effects of Phase Change Material on Latent Heat Properties of Cement Mortar
The study was conducted to evaluate the latent heat properties of cement mortar with different contents of phase change material (PCM). The paraffin PCM with melting point of 44℃ used in this study. PCM was added in the mixture with contents ranged from 0 to 30%. Test results indicated that the heat storage performances of cement mortar were improved with increasing the content of PCM.
