Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] Re: Phase change material
Hello Vasken,
I have published a review paper on PCM modeling. You can follow the url of the publisher:
<http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1364032113000555>http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1364032113000555
If you don''t have access to the publisher then visit my profile at researchgate (there are a couple of papers too):

I don't think there is a problem in E+ algorithm for modeling DuPont panel as it exhibits wide melting range. I believe that there are some uncertainties in your test house that needs to be incorporated in your E+ model. If I were you, I would validate the model at wall level rather than the house level unless the validated model is need for further analysis. Just to let you know that NREL has validated the E+ conduction finite difference (CondFD) solution algorithm for modeling PCM.
regards,
Saleh

Interesting point. Would you have more details on the modeling procedure? The models we have on EnergyPlus do not fully agree with our experimental data, however, the calibration still needs to be fine-tuned.
Jeremiah:
I'm at Concordia University in Montreal, Quebec! I guess "Concordia" is not an original name for a university.
We have others in our research network using BioPCM as a thermal energy storage medium. We wanted to use another one and then to compare results. It was actually quite difficult to get the DuPont Energain panels due to the fire hazards you mentioned - we had to import them from the UK. Naturally, I'll keep you informed, and thanks again for you input, it's very much appreciated.
