Abstract:Integrating innovative materials and technologies has become imperative in the quest to design energy-efficient and sustainable buildings. Among these, one of the promising solutions to improve indoor spaces' comfort conditions and energy efficiency is the Phase Change Materials (PCMs). The methodology experimentally explores the impact of combining plywood and paraffin wax as a PCM to improve indoor environments' thermal dynamics under Iraqi conditions. Two wooden boxes are used, with one having its wall stuf… Show more
