Este estudo apresenta uma revisão sistemática e análise bibliométrica dos trocadores de calor solo-ar para avaliar seu desempenho energético e conforto térmico residencial. Com o protocolo Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses aplicado na base de dados Scopus, mapeou-se a produção científica de 1980 a 2025. Os resultados comprovam a eficácia térmica da ventilação geotérmica passiva em múltiplos climas, com elevados coeficientes de desempenho e significativa economia frente à climatização convencional. Analisam-se os parâmetros de projeto, o histórico evolutivo e as tendências de hibridização e automação. Conclui-se que a tecnologia é uma alternativa viável e sustentável para o planejamento urbano de baixo carbono.Downloads
