Development of design calculations for radiant ceiling panels incorporating phase change materials (PCMs)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Thermally active building systems (TABS) show significant benefits such as providing peak load shifting, peak load reductions, and energy savings. Phase change material (PCM) applications with water circulation have benefits similar to TABS, but PCMs can store more heat per unit volume than concrete due to the latent heat exchange. Radiant panels with PCM can be applied in building retrofit, which gives this application a significant advantage compared to TABS. A design methodology for determining heat flux does not exist though for dimensioning a radiant ceiling system that incorporates PCM. Design methods according to standards for TABS – ISO 11855-2 and for radiant panels – ISO 18566-3 were investigated. Five radiant ceiling panels incorporating PCM were selected from Denmark, Canada, Germany, the Czech Republic and Latvia. The resulting heat flux between the panel and conditioned space, i.e. the room, following methods represented in the standards, were compared with the measured or simulated values reported in the literature. The comparison showed that the calculation for TABS (ISO 11855-2) led to similar results to the measured or simulated values.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
