The paper investigates experimentally the thermal performance of a ventilated double skin facade (DSF) with phase
change material (PCM) in its air channel, during the heating season in the Mediterranean climate. Two identical
house-like cubicles located in Puigverd de Lleida (Spain) were monitored during winter 2012, and in one of them, a
ventilated facade with PCM was located in the south wall. The ventilated facade can operate under mechanical or
natural ventilation mode and its thermal control depends on the weather conditions and the energetic demand of the
building. The experimental results conclude that even though the use of the ventilated facade with PCM improves
significantly the thermal behaviour of the whole building (working as a heat supplier in free floating tests, and
reducing significantly the electrical consumption of the HVAC systems), these improvements might be increased if a
thermal control is used.

“MECLIDE-Soluciones estructurales con materiales especiales para la climatización diferida de
edificios” with the colaboration of DETEA. The work was partially funded by the Spanish government
(ENE2011-28269-C03-02) and the European Union (COST Action COST TU0802), and in collaboration
with DETEA. The authors would like to thank the Catalan Government for the quality accreditation given
to their research group (2009 SGR 534). |
