Natural Ventilation

Solar ChimneyFive Solar chimney will be installed in order to regulate temperature and bring away water vapor. The efficiency of which was investigated g y p y gduring the CFD Study. Natural ventilation is achieved with minimal assisted mechanical ventilation using pendant fans with temperature sensors as control device.
