Numerical Investigation on a Solar Chimney in a Building Facade under Different Climatic Condition Lucia Capasso; Alessandra Diana; Oronzio Manca; Sergio Nardini; Silvio Vigna A three-dimensional CFD model, solved in Ansys Fluent with k-ε turbulence, simulates a 4 m tall converging solar chimney built into a south-facing building facade. Using daily solar irradiance for one representative day per season under quasi-steady conditions, it compares wall temperatures, air velocity and temperature fields across the four cases to characterise seasonal thermal and flow behaviour.

Summary
A three-dimensional CFD model, solved in Ansys Fluent with k-ε turbulence, simulates a 4 m tall converging solar chimney built into a south-facing building façade. Using daily solar irradiance for one representative day per season under quasi-steady conditions, it compares wall temperatures, air velocity and temperature fields across the four cases to characterise seasonal thermal and flow behaviour.
