Analysis of Reduced Cooling Load for a Multistorey-Building Incorporating a Ventilated Double Skin FaCade with a Solar Chimney Channel Uk Joo Sung; Soo Cho; Donghyun Seo; Kyoo Dong Song Measurements in an existing double-skin facade building revealed that overheating stemmed from stagnant airflow, so a solar chimney channel was added to boost natural ventilation. EnergyPlus airflow-network simulations of a taller channel and of greater solar gain on the channel wall both improved ventilation, the latter cutting annual cooling load by nearly 3%.
