... 10 01 2011 An analytical model and a thermodynamics study of the steady airflow inside a solar chimney are performed in this paper. A simplified Bernoulli equation combined with fluid dynamics and ideal gas equation are modeled and solved using EES solver to predict the performance...

... 10 01 2011 Natural ventilation in buildings using solar passive systems, such as solar chimneys, has emerged in the last years. Several theoretical and experimental studies in the literature show that their design parameters strongly depend on the ambient conditions, in which...

... 10 01 2011 In this paper we present the theoretical and experimental study of a small solar chimney. The dimensions of the solar Chimney channel are 1.95 m high, 1.70 m width and 0.24 m depth. The channel of the solar chimney has in its backside a metallic plate as a solar heat...
