just doing some research, was wondering if there any type of ventilation system.. soemthing at the power/size of jet engines to blow out hot air accumulation... or perhaps any websites/portals you guys could shove me towards? thanks
To exhaust air using a jet-engine would create such pressure differential to be uncomfortable for occupants.
I'm thinking orders of magnitude in the degree of discomfort.
I'm assuming that the jet engine is running at a level customary for takeoff or flight. Otherwise what would be the point - one may as well use a supercomputer to do simple arithmetics.
Now that I'm really thinking about this, windows would be blown inward from the negative pressure.
Sounds totally compelling. Where would you use it - prison?
This is exactly what you asked for, but perhaps relevant nonetheless: The Mercedes Benz Museum in Stuttgart by UN Studio has a great {i}smoke[/i] exhaust strategy. Lots of info on the youtube page here:
I'm sure that a jet engine is complete overkill for just about any scenario, however, I am reminded of a 19th Century house that I saw somewhere in Virginia that had a double height entry space with a cupola above - at some point the cupola was retrofitted with gas jets to encourage stack ventilation. Anyone know of an application like that?

Jet engine like fans for an active system? to blow out hot air? such thing?
