Experimental study on thermal performance of a solar chimney combined with PCM

•The phase change periods are nearly 13h 50min for all cases investigated.•700W/m2 drives the highest air flow rate 0.04kg/s.•500W/m2 generates the highest average outlet temperature 20.5°C.•All investigated cases deliver the thermal efficiency higher than 80%.•500W/m2 has the highest minimum effici...
