Floor radiant heating embedded phase change materials (PCMs) are a prospective field owing to its highly efficient energy-saving effect and comfortable thermal environment. In this work, using a non-eutectic mixture comprised of NaAc center dot 3H(2)O (main PCM) and glycine (temperature regulator) as PCM, and expanded graphite (EG) as supporting material, a novel composite PCM with high thermal performance used in the heat exchanger for the floor radiant heating was developed. The composition of the composite PCM was optimized, and its properties were studied. The results showed that the mixtu...
