Summary
Constructal Design is combined with two-dimensional turbulent CFD simulations (finite volume, k–ε closure) to optimise the shape of an inclined wall solar chimney serving a room, varying three geometric ratios under fixed chimney and room areas. Air mass flow proved highly sensitive to these ratios, with the best layout delivering about 5.7 times the flow of the worst.
