Summary

Surveys transient models of building-integrated solar chimneys, with and without phase change material, that rely on a global energy balance approach. Of 24 such works found, only six include PCM; two of five compared models suit unsteady conditions best and are recommended for building energy simulation, and a new model for a double-channel chimney with PCM is proposed.
