Summary
CFD analysis of a solar chimney used for natural ventilation in a real building project, computing indoor temperature and airflow fields with a realizable k-ε turbulence model and a discrete-ordinates radiation model. Design parameters such as airflow velocity and the sizes of the inlet and outlet openings are varied to show how the chimney shapes the indoor environment.
