Based on the theoretical and experimental studies of natural ventilation, the performance of natural ventilators has been analysed. Four types of natural window ventilators and three types of wall ventilators were studied. Experimental results show that the natural ventilators have a greater ventilation effect whilst meeting national and local standards of ventilation for residential buildings in heating or cooling seasons. The installation of such devices can be a compromise between ventilation and energy loss.
