Infographic(?) I question the use of 'absorb' and 'internal'.

Stagnation point: The hemisphere is small and consistent despite wind direction, a box rises and falls based on wind direction.

Leeward side is less turbulent based only on Cd.

Roofs are also lifted due to soffits and overhangs. Cape Cod style excepted.

The Dymaxion rotating ventilator exploited the Bernoulli Effect (windsped maximum at the summit) and the Coanda Effect (in reverse) to move the air inside. Air pressure not needed could be exploited for power.
