Claim 0:
1. A product of manufacture comprising:
(a) a first Phase Change Material (PCM) containment structure comprising or having contained therein a plurality of PCM,
wherein an outer face of the first PCM containment structure is open and exposes the plurality of to surrounding air to improve convective heat transfer between the plurality of PCM and the surrounding air; and
(b) at least one additional PCM containment structure or structures comprising or having contained therein a plurality of PCM, and an outermost containment structure has an outer face,
wherein the plurality of PCM of the at least one additional containment structure are exposed to the surrounding air to improve convective heat transfer between the plurality of PCM and the surrounding air;
wherein the first PCM containment structure is configured or adapted to be positioned in an opening in a wall, floor, a subfloor, and/or ceiling or between a plenum space and a room or a building space, or
the first PCM containment structure is configured or adapted to be positioned to cover or approximate the shape of an opening or open contact between a plenum or building space and a room or a structure or additional building space, or
the first PCM containment structure is configured or adapted to be positioned in or adjacent to a plenum space, and the at least one additional PCM containment structure is configured to be positioned above, in front of or in back of the first PCM containment structure,
and there is a space between the at least one additional PCM containment structure and the first PCM containment structure.
