Abstract
The use of phase change materials (PCM) and their possible architectural integration is a path in the search for optimizing energy efficiency in construction. As part of this path, a pavement has been designed which, in combination with the PCM, serves as a passive thermal conditioning system (new patent n(o). ES2333092 A1) [1]. The prototype has been tested experimentally and the results proved that it is a viable constructive solution improving the energy performance of sunny locals.

© 2011 Elsevier B.V. The development and test analysis of the system was financed by the Gres Rustico Ebro company. It has also been part of the INVISO project (Industrialización de la Vivienda Sostenible) that is being developed in the sub-project 10, in the School of Architecture of Madrid, "Sistemas para la optimización del comportamiento eficiente de las viviendas", directed by the ABIO Research Group.
