La ventilación por desplazamiento debería ser, en teoría, la inyección de aire en un recinto de manera que el aire fresco desplace el aire anteriormente existente sin mezclarse con él. La ventilación por desplazamiento se consigue inyectando aire fresco lentamente y cerca del suelo y realizando la extracción de aire cerca del techo.
