I just cannot find this in any dictionary.
How is it called in English when someone opens the windows (and/or the door) of a house in order to let the fresh air come in? Please note that I'm interested in the phenomenon that occours naturally (and not through artificial ventillation).
Also, what is the name of when in this situation the air starts to flow and there is a wind-like movement of air in the house? Capable of slamming the door.
In Hungarian, letting the wind in is called szellőztetés and the wind itself is called called huzat (although the latter has multiple meanings).
(In my language, the same word is also used when you open a car window when it moves and you can feel the air on your head, some people dont like it. On the other hand, in the house it's usually a good experience.)

The first thing I thought of was the phrasal verb air out.
You can also drop the word out and retain the same meaning. Macmillan explains it as follows:
As for what slams the door, that could be the air current, or, more informally, the breeze.
