A320 Ram Air / valve /switch / function / reason
Can any A320 current answer this, please . .

What does the Ram Air do when switch is selected to open Ram Air Valve

What is the Ram Air for?

[I thought it was for air inlet in the event of a pack failure, total pack failure.]

I also thought it was for fast smoke removal (in case somebody had burnt the dinner in the galley . . .etc)

Does/will having the Ram Air . . . open / letting in air, affect or do anything to the Cabin pressure significantly/critically . . ?

Thank you for your time - am not trying to put you on the spot I just cannot figure out ram air. or find it anywhere, yet.
