建築中相變化材料（Phase Change Material，PCM）的應用是綠色建築領域近年來備受關注的課題。相變化材料在固態或液態的相變化（熔解或凝固）過程中，能有效地儲存或釋放大量的潛熱，而這一特點，在潛熱儲熱、節約能源、提高空間熱舒適性等方面可以發揮非常大的作用。
本研究，將微膠囊相變化材料與鋁蜂巢建築構造結合，利用鋁蜂巢作為結構支撐與熱傳通道，研製而成內含微膠囊相變化材料之鋁蜂巢牆板，將其應用到居室環境中，對其熱傳特性等進行研究，以此來分析此相變化材料在實際建築中應用的可行性與效果。為了更好地比較分析，本實驗設計了多個組別，考慮了不同的日射熱得及不同的相變化材料的熔點溫度。通過不同的對比討論，得出結論。相變化材料應用到建築中，可以降低室內峰值溫度和熱流，延後峰值溫度和熱流到來的時間，降低能源消耗且帶來良好的空間舒適性。

Application of the phase change material (PCM) in the field of architecture is more and more popular in the study of green architectures. During the processes of melting or solidification, phase change materials can effectively release or store a significant amount of latent heat. So it will be very potential in latent heat thermal energy storage, energy saving, thermal comfort and so on.
In this study, combine the microencapsulated phase change materials with an aluminum honeycomb building construction, structural for support and heat transfer channel, to complete aluminum honeycomb wallboards incorporating microencapsulated phase change materials. Place it in a space which simulates the natural environment and study its thermal performance. At last, the purpose of the study is to know if it is possible and appropriate to use the PCM in the real buildings. In order to compare and analyze better, six groups are designed in this experiment. Different solar heat gains and different melting points of the phase change materials are considered. The conclusions will be obtained after contrast and discussion. Application of the phase change material can reduce the indoor temperature and heat flux peak, delay the peak arrival time. So it reduces energy consumption and brings good space thermal comfort.
