contents Boson-Fermion models of superconductivity are getting attention as they are able to explain some of the high temperature superconductor's properties. Here we report on the condensation energy of a 3D non-interacting mixture of paired fermions (electrons) as Cooper pairs assumed to be composite bosons, which are responsible for carrying superconductivity, plus unpaired fermions both trapped in a periodic multilayer structure like that of the cuasi-two dimensional High-Temperature superconductor planes, generated by applying an external Dirac's comb potential in the direction perpendicular to the planes where superconductivity preferably occurs, while in the other two directions parallel to the planes the mixture moves freely. For bosons we give the Bose-Einstein condensation critical temperature, which we assume is equal to the superconducting critical one, while for both bosons and fermions we give the chemical potential, the internal energy and the entropy, all of them as functions of temperature, in order to calculate the Helmholtz free energy, which we use to obtain the condensation energy of a mixture of $N_F$ ideal fermions (electrons), which after turning on the attractive pair interaction become $N_B = N_{F}/2$ ideal bosons. For several plane impenetrability magnitudes, we calculate the condensation energy as the difference between the free energies of the fermions which are in the normal state minus that of the bosons in the condensed state, where we observe that as the plane impenetrability increases: the condensation energy increases; the critical temperature decreases, as expected for example for cuprate superconductors, and the behavior of the entropy and the internal energy show a dimensional crossover from 3D to 2D.
