Also called Solar Chimney. A
passive, double-chambered device that draws warm air out of a facility.
The inside chamber is open to a high point in a facility. The outside
surface is painted a dark color; when the sun beats on this surface the
air inside the chamber is superheated, causing an updraft that draws
warm air out of the building.
