Abstract

A mini-scale solar chimney prototype has been set up, and the temperature distribution of the system with time and space, together with the velocity variation inside the chimney with time, has been measured. The experimental results indicate that the temperature distributions inside the collector and the effects of seasons on the heat transfer and flow characteristics of the system show great agreement with the analysis, while the temperature decreases significantly inside the chimney as the chimney is very thin which causes very high heat loss.
