Summary
A 3D Ansys Fluent model examines a building that pairs a windcatcher with evaporative roof cooling and a solar chimney, which draws indoor air out while the wind-driven inflow is cooled by water evaporation in hot, dry climates. The combined system cuts peak-hour cooling energy by about 60% and ventilation energy by about 80%; the influence of a wall opening is also assessed.
