Abstract: A method for controlling a ventilation system for the ventilation of an enclosure. The ventilation system includes two or more ventilation units, which each selectively and repeatedly can be controlled to establish an air flow to and/or from the enclosure. The method includes the steps of: determining information regarding operational conditions of one or more of the two or more ventilation units by measuring the air flow through or the pressure differential across the ventilation units, generating operation control data for one or more of the ventilation units from information regarding operational conditions determined for at least one other of the ventilation units, and controlling the operation of one or more of the two or more ventilation units by applying the generated operation control data. The invention further relates to a ventilation system for ventilating an enclosure.

Abstract: A ventilation system (1) for air ventilation is disclosed, comprising a continuous duct (5) having openings at both ends, an air flow generator (2) arranged inside the duct to be rotatable around an axis of rotation so that, positioned in different rotational positions, the air flow generator is capable of producing a substantially axial air flow in each of the two directions through the duct, respectively, one or more registers arranged to be moveable between different positions, in at least one of which positions the one or more registers (6) leave the duct (5) open for air passage, whereas in another of the positions the one or more registers (6) substantially block the air passage through the duct (5), means for rotating the air flow generator (2), and means for moving the one or more registers. Furthermore, methods for controlled active and passive ventilation, respectively, through the duct of such a ventilation system (1) are disclosed.
