摘要
Solar chimney has become an effective method to strengthen indoor ventilation. Therefore, the characteristics of natural ventilation induced by the solar chimney in an underground space is numerically investigated. Firstly, a model representing the underground space equipped with a vertical solar chimney is built. Then the influence of Rayleigh number ([Ra]) and chimney aspect ratio on the mass flow rate at the outlet are studied. The results show that with the increase of[Ra], the dimensionless mass flow rate at the outlet increases for a certain aspect ratio, but its growth tends to decline when[Ra]exceeds a critical value. It is also found that, for a comparatively smaller[Ra(Ra=103~106), ] the dimensionless mass flow rate at the outlet climbs up first and then declines with the aspect ratio increase, which leads to a peak value. And the corresponding aspect ratio for such peak value decreases as [Ra]increases. While, for a relatively larger[Ra(Ra=107~107), ] the dimensionless mass flow rate at the outlet decreases when the aspect ratio grows. Moreover, the numerical results indicate that, the reverse flow will appear in the chimney for certain [Ra] or aspect ratio, which is a key factor to affect the mass flow rate. © 2021, Solar Energy Periodical Office Co., Ltd.
