Hi everyone,
I want to know if you know what type can be used to simulate a SolarWall.
Somebody told me it might be type201 or type71f.
Is it correct?
However, can you tell me what is the best type can be used and its cost?

Best regards

Flavien,
By "solar wall" do you mean the perforated, corrugated metal panels
that stand off the side of a building and induce a flow of warm air
upwards behind them? If so, a model was developed at NREL (National
Renewable Energy Lab) some years ago. I have used it and gotten decent
results with it. I can check on its availability for public use if you
like.

If you mean another technology (solar storage walls for example),
please let me know and I'll try to provide a better answer.
Kind regards,
David
