Abstract
Phase Change Materials (PCMs) play a pivotal role in various sectors, particularly in automotive engineering, electric vehicles (EVs), and building construction. In the automotive sector, PCMs are crucial for thermal management systems, aiding in temperature regulation of components such as batteries and engines. In EVs, PCMs are instrumental in enhancing battery performance and lifespan by effectively managing thermal loads during charging and discharging cycles, thus ensuring optimal operating conditions. Moreover, in buildings, PCMs contribute significantly to energy efficiency by storing and releasing heat as required, reducing reliance on conventional heating and cooling systems. Their ability to store and release large amounts of energy at specific temperatures makes PCMs indispensable for sustainable solutions in automotive and building applications, contributing to improved performance, efficiency, and environmental sustainability.
