Review paperIn this paper, building energy simulation tools that analyze the applicability of phase change materials used in passive air conditioning applications in different building components and in different climatic conditions and studies using these tools will be discussed. Within the scope of the study, the concepts of phase change materials and energy simulation tools will be examined and selected examples based on the scanning model will be examined according to different environmental conditions and application details. The study is a review that emphasizes the need to match the experimental researches conducted in recent years with energy simulation tools.
