✦ Synopsis


A set of differential equations is developed to analyze a solar chimney. The equations are integrated by making a few simplifying assumptions, and expressions for the power generated, as well as, the efficiency are obtained in closed form algebraic formulas. The analytical model is shown to consistently under predict the performance by 4-6% vis-a-vis the differential model.

The solar chimney is a natural draft device which uses solar radiation to provide upward momentum to the in-flowing air, thereby converting the thermal energy into kinetic energy. A study was undertaken to evaluate the performance characteristics of solar chimneys both theoretically and experimental
