Buildings utilize approximately 40% of the total energy consumed in USA and Canada. Therefore, there is an**increasing need for saving energy consumed by buildings. Large portions of building materials have relatively**low thermal conductivities and high heat capacities. Therefore, the building structures have significant**potential to be utilized as temporary thermal energy storage systems. Innovative North (industrial partner for**this project) has been involved in the process of developing clean technologies like "SolarStrom" and**"ThermoStorm". Such technologies can be effectively utilized for windows, doors, walls, etc. for the energy**efficient building and can store energy from renewable sources and convert the stored energy to heat and other**useful forms (e.g., air-heating, air-conditioning, power generation, water heating, etc.) when required. Proposed**project involves computational simulation, design optimization, and performance test of solar-thermal**active-panel for energy efficient building envelopes integrated with latent heat thermal energy storage system.**Energy storage layer having both metallic porous and non-porous layer with phase change material will be**investigated and their energy storing efficiency will be determined. A large scale prototype will be developed**for experimental measurements in the lab and outside environment. Heat flux and temperatures of air layer,**heat transfer fluid, and energy storage material layer will be measured. Energy conversion efficiency of the**prototype will be calculated. Project like this will assist stimulation of green investment, green innovation, and**will create more employment opportunities for local people and environment friendly technologies. In the long**run, such system has the potential for cost and carbon footprint reductions in Ontario as well as in Canada.

在美国和加拿大，建筑物利用的能源约占总能源消耗的40%。因此，人们对建筑节能的需求越来越大。很大一部分建筑材料具有相对**低的导热系数和高的热容。因此，建筑结构具有作为临时热能存储系统的巨大**潜力。Innovative North(**本项目的工业合作伙伴)一直参与开发“SolarStrom”和**“ThermoStorm”等清洁技术。这种技术可以有效地用于节能建筑的窗、门、墙等，并可以存储来自可再生来源的能量，并将存储的能量转换为热和其他**有用的形式(例如，空气加热、空调、发电、热水等)。在需要的时候。拟开展的**项目包括太阳能热源板与潜热蓄能系统集成的节能建筑围护结构的计算模拟、设计优化和性能测试。**将研究具有金属多孔层和具有相变材料的无孔层的储能层**，并确定它们的储能效率。将开发一个大型原型，用于实验室和外部环境的实验测量。将测量空气层、**换热流体和储能材料层的热通量和温度。将计算**原型的能量转换效率。这样的项目将有助于刺激绿色投资、绿色创新，并**将为当地人创造更多就业机会和环境友好型技术。从长远来看，这种系统在安大略省和加拿大都有降低成本和减少碳足迹的潜力。
