Summary
Assesses a solar chimney power plant intended to supply electricity to remote villages in three counties of Ningxia, northwestern China. A plant with a 200 m chimney would deliver roughly 110–190 kW monthly averaged over the year. The analysis also examines how chimney height, collector size, ambient temperature, irradiance and turbine efficiency affect output.
