 NATURAL
VENTILATION
• Natural ventilation is the flow of air between
the outside and the inside of the building.
Natural ventilation originates from two natural
forces: pressure differences created by the wind
around the building – wind-driven ventilation; and
temperature differences – 'stack effect'
ventilation.
• Natural ventilation is used in spaces with a significant
heat release, when process and hygienic
requirements for indoor air quality allow outdoor air
supply without filtration and treatment.
• Natural ventilation cannot be used when incoming
outdoor air causes mist or condensation. Natural
ventilation allows significant air change rates (20–50
ach) for heat removal with minimal operation costs.
 TYPES OF NATURAL
VENTILATION
There are two types of natural ventilation occurring in buildings-

• Wind driven ventilation - (also known as cross ventilation) ,

Wind driven ventilation arises from the different pressures
created by wind around a building or structure, and openings
being formed on the perimeter which then permit flow through
the building.
• Buoyancy-driven ventilation - (also known as stack-effect
ventilation) , Buoyancy ventilation results from the density
differences between interior and exterior air. This variance
causes the warm air to rise above the chilly air and create an
upward airstream.

How do you get natural ventilation ?
You can improve natural ventilation
by fully or partly opening windows, air
vents and doors. Don't prop fire doors
open. Buildings are usually designed
to provide adequate ventilation. You
should be able to open any windows
or vents that let in fresh air.
The wind will naturally ventilate your
home by entering or leaving open
windows, depending on their
orientation to the wind. When wind
blows against your home, air is forced
into your windows on the side facing
into the wind, while a natural vacuum
effect tends to draw air out of
windows on the leeward side.
 ARTIFICIAL VENTILATION
OR
MECHANICAL VENTILATION
• Artificial ventilation (also called artificial
respiration) is a means of assisting or
stimulating respiration, a metabolic process
referring to the overall exchange of gases in the
body by pulmonary ventilation, external
respiration, and internal respiration.
• Mechanical ventilation systems circulate fresh
air using ducts and fans, rather than relying on
airflow through small holes or cracks in a home's
walls, roof, or windows.
 TYPES OF MECHANICAL
VENTILATION
• 1. Exhaust-only ventilation - This ventilation type uses a
fan to move indoor air out of your home, while outdoor
air is drawn in through leaks. Some benefits of this type
include the low costs of installation and maintenance, but
there are also several drawbacks.
• 2. Supply-only ventilation - This type of ventilation is the
opposite of exhaust-only, as instead of pushing indoor air
out, it draws outdoor air in using fans. The indoor air
escapes through a system of exhaust fan ducts as well as
the building enclosure.
• 3. Balanced ventilation - The third type of ventilation
combines the other two by using fans to draw air both
into and out of a building. This system has all the benefits
of exhaust-only and supply-only, such as reduced
contaminants and control of air supply, without many of
the drawbacks like humidity in the walls. However, the
cost is higher than the other two options.
• 4. Positive pressure ventilation
• 5. Negative pressure ventilation
