Summary

Numerical modelling of a solar chimney, coupled with underground cooling, for ventilating and cooling a four-storey school in Kitakyushu. Simplified calculations and CFD gave consistent airflow estimates, which depended strongly on inner wall temperatures and the chimney's section ratio; an 8 m chimney could supply roughly 5900 m³/h on sunny summer days.
