Importance of the Numerical Simulation in a Solar Chimney Analysis

Abstract: In this work, computational fluid dynamics was used to investigate the airflow in a solar chimney through a mathematical model that is presented. Solar chimneys appear as an interesting alternative to obtain cleaner energy resources, since they are able to generate electricity from solar radiation. A typical solar chimney combines three known elements: solar air collector, tower and wind turbine. This device uses the solar radiation to generate a hot airflow and this is usually used to drive wind turbines coup… Show more
