The way i would approach this is to always start with the minimum (nat vent) and use HR or mech vent as and when beneficial (which might be permanently in some cases), then add GUV etc.

Agree we should be looking to do more with nat vent in a mixed mode set up. We desperately need more night purge capacity too, otherwise cooling loads will rocket.

But thats a huge question, which would bring up a whole bunch of important issues we haven't even touched on yet. We have a new paper (currently under review) on this precise topic, so let's pick this up again when it's out : )

At same time we need to consider all the practical implications vs marginal benefits.

My point is simply that there is no magic wand & u need to think critically about all this in the context of what u are hoping to achieve.
