Analysis of fluctuating characteristics of wind-induced airflow through a single opening using LES modeling and the tracer gas technique
•LES modeling and tracer gas decay method are used to predict ventilation rate.•Instantaneous velocity and pressure fields around a single opening are analyzed.•Transient single-sided ventilation rates under five wind directions are analyzed.•Dominant ventilation mechanisms for different wind directions are discussed.•Effect of time interval on the prediction of mean ventilation rate is examined.
