Unlike hydrocarbon resources, solar energy is a clean, inexhaustible, and sustainable power source to meet all of humankind’s energy demands. Solar chimney power plants (SCPPs) having a simple design are capable of generating large-scale solar powered electricity. The systems have three primary components: a chimney, turbine, and collector. The optimization of the chimney geometry plays a key role in achieving the peak efficiency of SCPPs. In the current work, a three-dimensional (3D) model on the basis of the Manzanares prototype with a chimney height (<i>H</i>) of 194.6 m and radius (<i>R</i>) of 5.08 m is developed to identify optimal height for the innovative constricted chimney section configurations via ANSYS FLUENT. The height of the narrowed chimney sections varies as 1/4, 1/8, 1/16, and 1/32 of <i>H</i> for a fixed radius as 1/3 of <i>R</i>. The findings indicate that the power output (<i>P</i><sub><i>o</i></sub>) increases with decreasing the narrowed section height from <i>H</i>/4 to <i>H</i>/32 owing to enhanced mass flow rate and turbine pressure drop. The highest <i>P</i><sub><i>o</i></sub> of 65.9 kW is gained with the configuration with the height of <i>H</i>/32 and <i>P</i><sub><i>o</i></sub> enhances by 43.3% compared to the base case at 1000 W/m<sup>2</sup>. The novel equations are improved from the numerical data to estimate the performance features. Besides, the impact of the narrowed section radius on the performance is examined to optimize the dimensions of the constricted section. It is found that a decrease in the narrowed section radius from <i>R</i>/3 to <i>R</i>/5 for a constant height of <i>H</i>/32 leads to a reduction in <i>P</i><sub><i>o</i></sub> by 1.2% because of a remarkable decrease in mass flow rate. <i>H</i>/32 and <i>R</i>/3 can be optimum height and radius value for the reduced chimney section to augment system efficiency.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":14051,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Energy Research","volume":"2025 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2025-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/er/1959734","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144751512","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to the lack of precise expression about the coupling relationship between the charging conditions and the internal reaction mechanisms of the battery, it leads to several problems such as low charging efficiency, rapid battery aging, and insufficient safety prediction, which may significantly impact the promotion of new energy vehicles. This paper focused on ternary lithium-ion batteries and established a relationship between the operating voltage, equilibrium potential, internal resistance polarization potential, and solid–liquid phase polarization potential during the charging process of ternary lithium-ion batteries based on the improvement of the single-particle model (SP+). The models about equilibrium potential, internal resistance polarization potential, and solid–liquid phase polarization potential were built individually. According to the phenomenon that the negative electrode electromotive force will be lower than 0 when the battery is overcharged, the decoupling method for the positive and negative electrode potentials of ternary lithium-ion batteries was proposed and the safety charging constraint equation for ternary lithium-ion batteries was established. A 2 Ah 18,650 batteries were carried out in the multicondition battery tests and the coefficients of the operating voltage relationship expression can be solved. According to the charging constraint equation, the safety charging boundary map can be drawn based on the safety charging current and duration. In order to verify the effectiveness of the method proposed, a comparison test was carried out based on different charging conditions for 2, 3, and 4 C and 1000 cycle capacities at 25°C. The results showed that the proposed method can effectively improve the battery charging efficiency and the service life and the proposed method had a short system computation time and was suitable for real-time applications in embedded systems.
