I’ve been racking my brain lately thinking of what are good methods to increase internal airflow in a house with few windows, all facing the wrong direction to catch wind. What are your ideas?

Edit: Breaking a wall to make more windows isn’t an option.

    They’re good for circulating air that has already entered a space, but not so good at getting the air there to begin with.

      True. But I tried the fan-in-the-window technique and I think that if your window is so large that there’s a huge gap, it’s not terribly effective.

      I did have good luck one year putting a popcorn bowl of ice water in front of a fan pointed right at me on my desk. It doesn’t cool the room, but it cooled me.
