الملخص

تبحث هذه الدراسة في المحاكاة العددية لظاهرة الحمل المختلط داخل تجويف ثنائي الأبعاد على شكل مدخنة شمسية في تكوين منزلي. يستكشف التحليل تأثير العديد من العوامل، بما في ذلك أعداد ريتشاردسون وريونولدز، بالإضافة إلى موضعين مختلفين لمدخل التهوية. تُجرى المحاكاة باستخدام كود حاسوبي يعتمد على طريقة العناصر المحدودة لغالرگين تحت تقريب بوسينيسك. تهدف النتائج إلى تعزيز فهم سلوك تدفق الموائع وانتقال الحرارة داخل هذه التكوينات، مما يساهم في تحسين أداء المداخن الشمسية في التطبيقات السكنية.

تُظهر الدراسة أيضًا أن موضع مدخل التهوية، إلى جانب أعداد رينولدز وريتشاردسون، له تأثير كبير على تدفق الهواء وانتقال الحرارة في المنزل المهوى طبيعيًا باستخدام مدخنة شمسية.
