###### Abstract
These works provided relevant information to perform thermal and daylight simulations, and they have helped to improve the knowledge of PCM glazing performance compared with other advanced glazing technologies. On the other hand, studies regarding the impact of PCM glazing on thermal performance have focused on analyzing surface temperature variations, solar transmittance, heat storage, and heat fluxes. [PERSON], et al. [11] and [PERSON], et al. [12] studied the impact of solar irradiance, PCM layer thickness, PCM melting temperature, and the air layer convection of a multilayer glazed roof using experimental measurements. They concluded that the PCM layer melting temperature and thickness have crucial effects on controlling solar transmission and improving the window thermal performance. [PERSON], et al. [13] and [PERSON], et al. [14] studied a characterization of PCM glazing using large-scale measurements in a climate simulator. They carried out different tests for various pulse solar irradiance levels and thermal gradients to compare the performances of a four-pane window with a solar reflector and macro-encapsulated salt with a double-glazed reference window. They found that the four-pane window's higher thermal inertia decreased the cooling loads and improved thermal comfort. [PERSON], et al. [15] experimentally studied the impact of PCM glazing on the thermal performance in a full-scale test facility. They found that PCM glazing performed better during summer than a double-glazed unit in terms of energy storage and smoothing and delaying heat fluxes, while the solar heat gain reduction was similar to the heat loss in winter. Another study case was presented in [16], which evaluated a triple glazed window to prevent overheating during summer and to ensure PCM discharge overnight. The review of [PERSON], et al. [17] indicated that research on understanding the optical and thermal properties of PCM glazing could improve the accuracy of numerical simulations, hence decreasing the high costs of experimental works to obtain optimal glazing system solutions[PERSON] Previous studies have shown a good understanding of PCM glazing properties and their thermal behavior. However, very few studies have evaluated the potential of PCM glazing to reduce buildings cooling loads. Furthermore, the state-of-the-art review shows a lack of experimental studies quantifying the energy savings caused by PCM glazing and evaluating the actual impact of this technology on [PERSON] cooling loads[PERSON] [PERSON], et al. (2018) and [PERSON], et al. (2019) indicated that measurements under real operational conditions are indispensable for evaluating the PCM's thermal performance and the potential to reduce the cooling energy consumption. Regarding the impact of PCM glazing on occupants' thermal comfort, [PERSON], et al. (2019) used a modified Predicted Mean Vote (PMV), based on the study of [PERSON] (2018), that considered the effect of solar radiation on PMV. They evaluated the occupants' thermal comfort in a room with PCM glazing experimentally and compared it with the obtained results in a reference room equipped with a double-glazed window. They found that, independent of the irradiance level on the window and the season, PCM glazing performs better than the double-glazed window in terms of PMV. Additionally, they observed that correctly choosing the PCM melting temperature is crucial because, if the PCM melts completely before sunset, the window's internal temperature increases, which causes thermal discomfort. However, they also highlighted a lack of studies on the impact of PCM glazing on thermal comfort for other locations and building shapes based on real-scale experiments. Concerning the visual comfort of the occupants in daylight spaces with PCM glazing, [PERSON]. ([PERSON] _et al._, 2018; [PERSON] _et al._, 2018) evaluated, by modeling with Radiance (Radian, 2018), the effects on visual comfort of PCM glazing and selective glazing of an office room with south and west-oriented window facades.
