Abstract
⺠The temperature gradient increases significantly and the utility ratio of PCM decreases obviously as void ratio increases. ⺠Void cavity influences the process of phase change greatly. ⺠PCM melts slowly during sunlight periods and freezes slowly during eclipse periods as void ratio increases. ⺠The temperature gradient of PCM zone is very significant with the effect of void cavity.
