hayden55 -- Thanks for asking.

Here's the answer in the form of a comic strip:

This covers location and sizing of the vents. Not shown is the torodial internal air flow.

With no ventilation the air still circulates. One way in Sumer, tthe other way in Winter. Dividing walls should be radial.

edit: redpoint5's pushback is typical.

Geodesic domes are straight lines. Flat ceiling are psychologically constraining, something hard to convey in a picture. Here's an article: www.obsev.com: This Fatal Flaw Led to the Decline in the Popularity of Dome Homes

The surprising conclusion: Domes have become tainted by an association with the artist formerly known as Kanye West.
