Summary

Investigates how well a double-skin south façade topped by a solar chimney channel can drive natural ventilation in a proposed eight-storey office building with a north-side atrium. The chimney acts as a thermal storage space linked to the façade cavity, and the ventilation performance is assessed using reduced-scale model tests combined with CFD simulations.
