Simulation tool for PCM (Phase Change Materials)

Dear,

Our research team is trying to investigate the thermal mass effect of
PCM- (Phase Change Materials) based building materials such as the
Paraffin. Does anyone know a computer simulation tool that tests this
issue considering the latent heat for phase changing?

Thank you.

FYI...

I'd contact Prof. Kelly Kissock at the University of Dayton Mechanical Engineering Department.

You could try the PCM facilities within ESP-r. These are available in the advanced materials option.
