Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

Paper presents different options of the ventilation in the building. Although the topic is interested, this is more "technical" that "scientific" paper. 

Some improvements are needed: 

  • pictures on Figure 3 are "not clear";
  • it is not clear why equations for solar radiation ( 5 - 9 ) are used since the research seems to be experimental);
  • airflow (figure 14): better in l/s
  • for "fair" comparison measurements at "equal" conditions needs to be made (which is not so hard to achieve);
  • conclusion might give some suggestions for ventilation standards;
  • A lot of references are in Polish (hard to understand for non polish readers);

Round 2

Reviewer 2 Report

When answering reviewers' comments please add a word document that includes a description of the made changes or responses to the comments why no changes have been made. At the moment only the word version of the paper has been added. This causes extra work for the reviewing process. I see that some changes have been made but can not determine if everything is corrected.
