      <abstract><p>Solar tower may be considered favorable than wind turbines in hot rural areas. The tower uses solar radiation to heat up the air inside, which generates an upward flow that can be used to generate electricity. Theoretical calculations, experimental trial, in addition to CFD analysis were conducted and compared within this study. The three studies results proved the reliability of the tower idea to be applied on a larger scale giving significant amount of electricity which can share in solving the increasing demand of electricity worldwide.</p></abstract>
