“…The temperature losses from the outdoor environment are minimised and the brick maintains its temperature for an extended duration. The PCM-enhanced rate indicates that dropping the brick's temperature to 25 • C requires about 180 min, which is also consistent with the study performed by Gupta et al investigating the the time lag of a brick filled with paraffin wax and coconut oil [47].…”

Aligning the European Union goals for climate neutrality by 2050 and the ambition for carbon equivalent emissions reduction to almost half by 2030 demands the exploration of alternative decarbonisation pathways. Energy consumption across all sectors is identified as a crucial contributor to this challenge, with a number of legislative and regulatory frameworks and commitments to be introduced every year. In response to these trends, the concept of exploiting a building’s thermal mass through the integration of phase change materials (PCMs) enhances the ability of building elements to reserve and deliver large amounts of energy during phase transitions. However, the incorporation of PCMs into building elements requires the thorough understanding of their thermal behaviour. This study evaluates and predicts the thermophysical properties of mineral particles carrying PCMs and coated with a cementitious layer able to be utilised as fillers in construction applications. By employing deep learning and predictive modelling techniques, the numerical data-driven model developed in this paper enhances accuracy and efficiency in property estimation and prediction, facilitating material selection, system design, and optimisation. A model in a MATLAB simulation environment is presented, evaluating and predicting the thermophysical properties of semi-organic particles able to enhance building envelope thermal mass as a hybrid energy storage solution. These findings show the time needed for a building block to undergo cooling, demonstrating a clear upgrade in the thermal discharge of the walls. Substituting traditional EP with PCM-enhanced EP leads to a minimum reduction of 1 °C per hour in the discharge rate, thereby extending the comfort duration of indoor spaces without necessitating additional space heating. These models offer the potential for assessing diverse material compositions and usage scenarios, offering valuable insights to aid decisions in optimizing building energy efficiency.

“…For example, traditional image processing algorithms may be affected by noise and environmental factors when processing complex thermal imaging data, leading to inaccurate analysis results [13][14][15][16]. In addition, existing methods for segmenting energy efficiency states often lack specificity and fail to comprehensively reflect the actual energy efficiency state of buildings [17][18][19][20][21][22]. Therefore, it is urgent to develop more efficient and accurate analysis methods to enhance the reliability and practicality of building energy efficiency assessments.…”

“…Among these, the use of phase change materials (PCM) in building envelopes for regulating indoor temperature has received considerable attention, due to their superior energy storage density and constant phase change temperature [3,4]. Previous studies [5][6][7] have demonstrated that incorporating PCM into building envelopes can significantly reduce the peak indoor air temperature by up to 14.51%, with a time delay of 71 minutes. These findings clearly demonstrates that PCM-enhanced envelopes have a positive impact on building energy management.…”
