  5. Phase Change Materials (PCMs): Phase Change Materials, commonly referred to as PCMs, are products that store, release or absorb heat (ThermalEnergy) as they oscillate between solid and liquid form. Giving off heat as they change to a solid state and absorbing it as they return to a liquid state (Melting/Freezing).

  6. Can you think of a common element in nature that is a PCM? Interestingly, the simplest, cheapest and most effective Phase Change Material is water/ice. Unfortunately, its freezing point of +32°Fprecludes it from the majority of energy storage applications.

  7. How PCMs work: Ice cubes are an illustrative example of how phase change materials work: as they melt in a drink, they absorb heat from their environment; as they solidify in the freezer compartment, they release heat into it. During the change from the solid to the liquid phase and vice-versa, the material's temperature remains constant at 0 °C. This is the reason why as long as there is a mixture of water and ice in a bucket with cans, you don’t want to remove the water until all of the ice has melted. This hidden heat stored in the phase change is termed latent heat.

  10. Consolidation Activity:“PCMs Quiz” Find the students with the same colour sweet as yourself, now you are a PCM Team! You have 5 minutes to read your part of the article that you have been given. Have a chat with your team sharing with them what you have read and understood about PCMs. You have another 5 minutes for this process. Now, it’s fantastic and exciting Quiz Time!

  11. PDMs Questionnaire Quiz Phase Change Materials

  12. PCMs questionnaire Question 1 • Which of the following statements correctly describes the properties of a phase change material? • a. A substance that requires a relatively small amount of heat to change from solid to a liquid. • b. A substance that requires a relatively large amount of heat to change from solid to a liquid. • c. A substance that does not change state, even at very high temperatures • d. A substance that absorbs large amount of humidity from the air.

  13. PCMs questionnaire Question 2 • Which of the following is an example of latent heat transfer? • a. Heat is applied to water at 75°C, which gets hotter until it reaches its boiling point of 100°C. • b. Heat is applied to water at 50°C, which gets hotter until it reaches its boiling point of 100°C. • c. Heat is applied to water at 100°C, which remains the same temperature until all the water is evaporated. • d. The heat source is removed, and the temperature of the water falls until it reaches room temperature or its freezing point of 0°C.

  14. PCMs questionnaire Question 3 • What temperature should phase change materials used in mechanically ventilated spaces change from a solid to a liquid? • a. 20°C. • b. 23°C. • c. 26°C. • d. 30°C.
