The article examines the impact of openings in a building on airflow and, consequently, on the formation of the thermal gradient. The study analyzed airflow patterns and speed. For the analysis, the modern software package ANSYS was used, which models fluid dynamics. Variables considered included the position, state, and location of the opening, with a focus on natural ventilation, which is important for health maintenance and creating specific comfort conditions. The results showed that the area of the opening has the greatest effect on indoor airflow, leading to the redistribution of the direction and rate of the thermal gradient due to convective flows.
