Matias, Modeling natural ventilation isn't a very easy task - you need to link the building thermal model in TRNSYS with an airflow model using either COMIS 3.2, CONTAM (Type97) or TRNFlow. Each of those represents an airflow model of the building that determines the amount of ambient air that will flow into the building due to wind pressure and buoyancy (temperature and height difference) effects. You would presumably also have to write a model of a set of windows that open and close between your 5 and 21 C temperature set points. You might begin by looking at Type97's mathematical description and at the CONTAM example that is provided with TRNSYS.
