Summary

The paper presents a study of the passive ventilation of a single-storey detached building. The air flow is induced by a hot element of the building heated by solar energy. The method may also be used to remove toxic gases such as radon from the ground floor of a building with no additional expense. Experiments and simulations were performed in steady and transient states in a scaled-down laboratory model.
