In general, a wind tower is a facility formed based on the convection phenomenon of air in a tower made like a chimney in a building, and is widely used for indoor cooling and air purification in the Middle East.

Such a wind tower forms a downdraft of convection, and cools and purifies the air by introducing cool air into the room without a separate cooling device by the downdraft.

As a conventional technique using this convection phenomenon, "wind power generation and internal and external air circulation method" has been proposed.

In the prior art, the indoor air is installed without being disturbed by the wind through the vertical wind generator installed on the roof, and the outdoor air inlet pipe is installed with a certain space around the exhaust pipe, so that the outdoor air is cleaner than the ground and has a lower temperature than the ground.
