Underfloor heating with latent heat storage
Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part A: Journal of Power and Energy, 2001Underfloor heating is known for its comfort due to the low and favourable temperature gradient in the heated space above the large floor area available for heating. This paper addresses the idea of improving the existing underfloor heating system by using an encapsulated phase change material (PCM) that melts and solidifies at ...
