Effect of Divergent Chimneys on the Performance of a Solar Chimney Power Plant

open access: yesEnergy Procedia, 2017
Abstract This paper numerically examined the performance of divergent chimneys in solar chimney power plants with two shape-controlling parameters, that is, the area ratio of the chimney exit over the entrance and the divergent angle. Compared with the conventional cylindrical chimneys, a higher power output in the divergent-chimney system could be ...
