Summary

A small solar chimney prototype in Alexandria, Egypt, with a 16 m² collector and a 3 m tall chimney, was tested in summer and modelled numerically to estimate turbine power from airflow speed, mass flow and pressure drop. Measured output peaked at roughly 0.011 W, and simulated fields of temperature, pressure, density and velocity matched the measurements well.
