Abstract |
The solar chimney is a natural ventilation technique that has the potential to save energy use in buildings as well as maintain comfortable indoor quality. This research aims to study inclined and vertical solar chimney by incorporating perforated plates using CFD technique. The location of perforated plates and wall is varied and its effect on air flow is studied for natural ventilation. A two-dimensional symmetric model using the RNG (Re-Normalization Group) k−ε turbulence closure is simulated. The discrete ordinates non-grey radiation model is used to implement the radiative-transfer equation. To simulate solar irradiation, the solar ray-tracing algorithm is employed. The software used for modeling is Creo 2.0 and for analysis ANSYS CFX is used. |
