Dataset of EnergyPlus models to evaluate the impact of modeling the hysteresis phenomenon of phase change materials on the building energy performance

This dataset is the research data generated to evaluate the impact of modeling the hysteresis phenomenon of phase change materials (PCM) on the building performance simulation, which includes: -  A series of EnergyPlus models representing the medium office of the Prototype Building Models developed by DOE. These are the original model without PCM (Baseline), and four models with different PCM modeling approaches (melting-curve, solidification-curve, mean-curve, hysteresis-model). - The typical meteorological year (TMY) for Frankfurt city that was used to obtain the results, which is freely provided by Climate.One.Building.Org repository (https://climate.onebuilding.org/).
