There are many configuration sizes of the small-scale solar chimney in the world,
because of various meteorological and geographic conditions. The main objective
of their works is to test the heat transfer performance of the collector and the
power output. However, our work is based on the numerical study and numerical
optimization of geometric parameters to testing the performance of the prototype
with meteorological data. In the first part, we are interested in the experimental
characterization of a solar chimney with specific instrumentation. In particular,
we present a detailed description of the realization and the various manipulations
made to the study. A discussion of results is then presented at the end of this
chapter.
