Yes, I am well aware of how breezes can cool you off and how that works. I have a big stand fan that is blowing on me pretty much constantly while I'm sitting at the computer during the hot months for that very reason.
Like I said above, she could get a (better, more consistent) "breeze" by just setting up one of the other big stand fans nearby (and/or by turning on the ceiling fan in the kitchen, which is directly above where she usually stays during the day), rather than opening the windows and just hoping the wind decides to cooperate and blow into the window, while at the same time letting the rest of the house steadily get hotter for no good reason, since the latter is going to happen in that situation regardless, whether there is a breeze or not. This is combined with the fact that those windows are on the primary sun facing side of the house, and just having them uncovered for "breeze" purposes, let alone open, lets in a lot of sunlight during the hottest parts of the day, which is more likely a bigger contributor to the house getting hotter than any occasional breeze literally blowing (hotter) air into the house through the open window. In any case, it's not great.
