Summary

Engineering education paper on a student team that designed, built and tested a small solar chimney meant as a renewable power source, balancing requirements for use in Minnesota and in Ghana. A 40-foot prototype tested in Minnesota produced an air temperature rise of about 22 °F in winter, but the paper concentrates on what students learned during the project.
