LoginThis paper is a presentation of a detailed mathematical simulation along with an experimental investigation of airflow in solar chimneys carried out with an experimental apparatus whose most of the variables could be changed during the experiments. It is a chimney channel with changeable channel thickness and inclination angle.
The simulation model used proved very useful to simulate solar chimneys performance. It can predict flow rates for a wide range of variables.
