water or alcohol evaporating from the CAC will draw more heat away from it than just air flow will... both together will work well...

pour some alcohol on your hand that is room temp and feel how cold your hand gets... it takes the heat with it when it evaporates

run a google search on "latent heat of vaporization"

That is the effect you feel. The guys out west really know this effect. They can run an evaporative cooler on a 120 degree day and stay cool, us in the south just get wet.
