Analysis of the influence of solar chimneys on comfort and air renovation in indoor environments Matheus Menezes Oliveira Master's-level research using EnergyPlus building energy simulation to assess how a solar chimney can improve thermal comfort and air exchange in Brazilian classrooms and offices. After comparing three ways of modelling chimneys in the software, the Brise-Chamine-Solar device was tested with varied height, number and orientation, raising comfortable hours by roughly 20–30%, with bioclimatic zones ZB1 to ZB5 most favourable.

Summary
Master's-level research using EnergyPlus building energy simulation to assess how a solar chimney can improve thermal comfort and air exchange in Brazilian classrooms and offices. After comparing three ways of modelling chimneys in the software, the Brise-Chaminé-Solar device was tested with varied height, number and orientation, raising comfortable hours by roughly 20–30%, with bioclimatic zones ZB1 to ZB5 most favourable.
