Is it possible to transfer heat from low temperature area to high temperature area without any external aid like power or energy?
Let us say for an eg, a room as a temp 45 Celsius and the environmental temp is more than the room temperature, lets say 50 Celsius. My desired effect is to reduce the room temperature i.e transferring heat from the room to environment without any external aids such as electricity, heating. Is it possible to do? If it is possible in what way it can be done?

I was thinking magic may do it, but that would be a form of energy or power.

Good luck,
