Summary
Two-dimensional simulations of a compact chimney placed on a roof, run at many slopes and heating levels, supply data to a method that predicts airflow from actual weather while accounting for how slope alters incoming sunshine. Used for Australian locations spread across latitudes, it shows ventilation peaks when the chimney is tilted between 45° and 60°, with the best value shifting by site and time of year.
