Increased global energy consumption results in the reduction in the availability of traditional energy resources, such as coal, oil and natural gas. Therefore, there is an urgent need for new systems development based on the conversion and storage of sustainable and clean energy. Phase change materials (PCMs) are one of the key components for the development of advanced sustainable solutions in renewable energy and engineering systems. In order to update the field of renewable energy and engineering systems with the use of PCMs, a Special Issue entitled ?Phase Change Materials: Design and Applications? is introduced. This book gathers and reviews the collection of ten contributions (nine articles and one review), with authors from Europe, Asia and Americam accepted for publication in the aforementioned Special Issue of Applied Sciences. 517 $aPhase Change Materials 606 $aResearch & information: general$2bicssc 606 $aPhysics$2bicssc 610 $aphase change materials 610 $athermal energy storage 610 $aenergy efficiency 610 $abuilding applications 610 $aconstruction materials 610 $aphase-change material 610 $adispersion 610 $athermal-mechanical stability 610 $aviscosity 610 $asupercooling 610 $anucleating agent 610 $acold storage 610 $abattery cooling 610 $aLPMO 610 $aFourier Transform ac Voltammetry (FTacV) 610 $acyclic voltammetry 610 $aDirect Electron Transfer (DET) 610 $alathrate hydrate 610 $atetrabutylammonium acrylate (TBAAc) 610 $acrystal growth 610 $aultrasonic vibration 610 $apolyurethane elastomers 610 $amicroencapsulated PCMs 610 $athermal properties 610 $amechanical properties 610 $aphase change material 610 $asugar alcohol 610 $aerythritol 610 $alatent heat storage 610 $athermal stability 610 $adegradation kinetics 610 $aPCM 610 $amini-channels 610 $aair 610 $amelting 610 $asolidification 610 $alatent heat thermal energy storage 610 $aphase change materials (PCM) 610 $amacro-encapsulation 610 $arectangular slab 610 $aexperimental study 610 $asodium nitrate 610 $athermal conductivity 610 $amicroencapsulation 610 $alatent heat 610 $amulticriteria decision 610 $afinite element 610 $aautomotive 610 $aenergy storage 615 7$aResearch & information: general 615 7$aPhysics 700 $aKartsonakis$b Ioannis$4edt$01299438 702 $aKartsonakis$b Ioannis$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910595080103321 996 $aPhase Change Materials: Design and Applications$93040837 997 $aUNINA
