The building sector is the global largest energy consumer. To reduce environmental impact of buildings, passive tools must be developed. Still, air conditioning is increasingly used in the DROM-COM. The development of natural ventilation is essential to reverse this trend. Multizone models are not really suited for describing natural ventilation flows. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) seem to be a promising way too model those flows.This thesis deals with the adaptation of a direct resolution of the Navier-Stokes equations code to describe airflows in buildings. The development, implementation and comparison of different types of pressure boundary conditions on the openings were required. The behavior of a room subjected to natural and mi...
