Focused solar heating systems with phase change thermal storage represent a novel approach to energy application that is distinct from traditional solar energy methods. . Taking the heating of a driving school building in the suburbs of Baiyin, Gansu as a case study, and using typical meteorological data for the local heating season, we simulated the indoor thermal load of the building using DEST software. We then designed a focused solar heating system with phase. . This article designs a high-altitude border guard post that can fully utilize the heat absorbed by solar collectors to continuously store thermal energy during the day and stably release heat at night. Phase change material was placed in the middle of the solar vacuum tube to reduce the impact of solar radiation fluctuations on indoor heating. By 2025, this technology is projected to reduce solar heating costs by up to 40% in residential applications [3] [9]. Despite these advances, existing PCMs struggle to simultaneously achieve high phase. .
