Analysis of some available heat transfer coefficients applicable to solar chimney power plant collectors Marco Aurelio dos Santos Bernardes; Theodor W. von Backstrom; Detlev G. Kroger Compares two published approaches for estimating convective heat transfer at the roof and ground of a solar chimney power plant collector, and explains why their predictions differ. One model yields consistently larger transfer coefficients and heat fluxes, yet both give nearly the same collector air temperature rise and therefore similar power output.
