Summary
Simulations of solar chimney power plants compare two output-control schemes, one regulating airflow volume and the other the pressure drop across the turbine. The optimal share of available pressure taken by the turbine, given in earlier literature as 2/3 to 0.97, is shown to change through the day and to depend on collector heat transfer coefficients.
