COMPARATIVE REVIEW OF PHASE CHANGE MATERIALS FOR COOLING DEMAND REDUCTION IN HOT-ARID CLIMATES: INSIGHTS FROM IRAQ AND THE GULF

In hot and dry countries like Iraq, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates, buildings need a lot of cooling, which uses up to 70-80% of all the electricity in homes and offices. This reliance on air conditioning makes energy shortages and environmental problems worse. One way to solve this probl...
