The current study involved investigating the effect of trombe passive solar wall on the greenhouse air temperature compared with the control treatment (without trombe wall and no soil effect).
At 07:00 AM, the heat energy from solar radiation begins entering the walls. Heat accumulation slowly begins to increase reaching the maximum penetration at 2:00 PM. The effect of heat absorption, at maximum penetration, causes the inner surface of the container walls to increase the temperature by around 4.3°C.
The temperature on the wall clearly increases effect from the amount of solar radiation that occurs on the outside of the container. This result proved that wall of the container has been heat penetration from the solar radiation consistent with the results that have been done previously (M.A. Budiyanto and Shinoda 2017).

Thermal energy storage improves the productivity of solar collectors. Phase change materials (PCM) are employed to store thermal energy in solar collectors, heat pumps, heat recovery, hot and cold storage. PCMs are encapsulated primarily in shell-and-tube, cylindrical, triplex-tube, spherical, rectangular, and trapezoidal containers.
PCM container geometry and orientations are practical passive heat transfer enhancement techniques in the long-term compared to adding nanoparticles and attaching fins. This review focuses on significant aspects of PCM container designs for practical solar thermal storage.
