house filled with smoke when windy

house filled with smoke when windy

So my grandparents have this chimney made to replace the broken one.

Since the builder decided to make it thinner on the top and because this is a windy area, when we have wind almost no smoke goes out the chimney.

My idea was to do something like in the drawing, like a wall with a steel sheet so that the wind does not hit the vents directly in hopes that that fixes it.

I am however looking for guidance as I don't know a whole lot about chimney physics.
