• Thermal analysis of including phase change material in a domestic hot water cylinder 

  Gracia Cuesta, Alvaro de; Oró Prim, Eduard; Farid, Mohammed M.; Cabeza, Luisa F. (Elsevier, 2011)

  The domestic electrical hot water cylinder used in this paper incorporates encapsulated phase change material (PCM) placed in 57 vertical pipes. The use of PCM increases the thermal energy storage capacity of the cylinder ...

• Numerical analysis of building envelope with movable phase change materials for heating applications 

  Gracia Cuesta, Alvaro de (MDPI, 2019)

  Latent heat storage materials have been tested by several researchers for decades to be used as passive heating and cooling systems in buildings but their implementation into building components is still stacked as is ...

• Comparison of three different devices available in Spain to test thermal properties of building materials including phase change materials 

  Barreneche Güerisoli, Camila; Gracia Cuesta, Alvaro de; Serrano, Susana; Navarro, Maria E.; Borreguero, Ana María; Fernández Renna, Ana Inés; Carmona, Manuel; Rodriguez, Juan Francisco; Cabeza, Luisa F. (Elsevier, 2013)

  Thermal properties of materials used in building envelopes must be analysed in order to evaluate the thermal response of the constructive system. This thermal characterisation is a key point during the design phase of a ...
