Summary
Models a building cooling scheme in which an adsorption chiller powered by solar heat feeds chilled plates in a channel while a chimney drives the airflow. Comfort holds in dry and humid weather and ventilation stays steady at a given load. Using three plates rather than one lowers room temperature by about 27%, and electricity use is roughly 37% below that of an inverter split-type unit.
