Performance of a solar chimney Kok Seng Ong; C.C Chow A steady-state thermal resistance model predicts glazing, absorber wall and airflow temperatures and velocities in a solar chimney for different air gaps and solar intensities. Outdoor tests on a 2 m tall rig gave air speeds of roughly 0.25–0.39 m/s under radiation up to 650 W/m2, and no reverse flow appeared even with the widest gap.

Summary
A steady-state thermal resistance model predicts glazing, absorber wall and airflow temperatures and velocities in a solar chimney for different air gaps and solar intensities. Outdoor tests on a 2 m tall rig gave air speeds of roughly 0.25–0.39 m/s under radiation up to 650 W/m², and no reverse flow appeared even with the widest gap.
