This paper studies the climatic suitability to natural ventilation, which depends on energy saved for cooling and on the presence of driving forces such as wind and buoyancy. It may be assessed by estimating the distribution of temperature differences : difference between indoor and upper limit of comfort zone temperature for the energy saved, difference between indoor and outdoor temperature for the buoyancy effect.
