Energy-efficient concrete roofs for buildings: Integrating macroencapsulated nano-enhanced PCMs for hot climate adaptation

Direct sunlight on concrete roofs raises interior heat flow and cooling demands. Latent heat storage with phase change materials (PCMs) offers passive cooling, but nanomaterials are needed to improve their low thermal conductivity. In this study, a two-way hollow concrete roof (HCR) integrated with...
